LOCATION: Denkiri Cafe, UF Starfleet Astraios.
ATTENDANCE: 6
TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION:
"Being Virtually Creative"
We discussed how people engage in creativity in virtual worlds, they do things like:
- create / dress avatars
- build & create environments
- roleplay (collective live-action storytelling)
- writing mission briefings, logging activities
- host art gallery showings, interesting talks, Mind Melds
Could we do more? What is missing?
- came up with the idea of a UFS composers event later this year - stream original compositions
- broadened the scope of the current linguistics/archeology logs to include more of the crew

"Mild Meld is a meeting of minds, a playful tossing out of ideas, silly and serious... the wilder the better... no idea is criticized. We may find that that wild idea and this crazy thought meld together into something really cool, or we may just have collective coffee and rambunctious fellowship. It's all good." As Gene Roddenberry said: "To be different is not necessarily to be ugly; to have a different idea is not necessarily to be wrong. The worst possible thing is for all of us to begin to look and talk and act and think alike."
Next 'Mind Meld's' will be held:
Tue July 5th @ 10:30am SLT/3RG
Fri July 8th, 1000PM/2200hrs SLT/3RG.
All are welcome to attend.
