AuraMan Update - NW Indiana

Post by misha50 » Sun May 13, 2007 6:17 pm

It's almost the middle of May. Memorial Day Weekend is almost here.
Then it's 4th of July (a whole week – woohoo !!!). And then it's
AuraMan weekend (July 28-29), one of the funnest weekends at Sun
Aura. And it, too, is coming sooner than you think. This is the
latest of your monthly (sort of) AuraMan Updates.

AuraMan, a participatory event, means you !! Bring out your inner
freak. Create that piece of art that's been spinning around in your
head. Clear out those chakras and clean up that aura. Party to the
melodies of the lounge lizards. Hunt for lost treasures. BURN ART
BIG and small. For no apparent reason.

As you know this year's AuraMan theme is "Into the Vortex". Many
people approached me this past weekend at camp, excited about the
event and definitely planning to attend, and best yet, planning some
very cool art projects for the beach. You should, too, be planning,
in the vortex of your mind, to be there, in person, of course. But
bring your mind with you. You can lose it there.

I've been working on the redesign of the AuraMan himself (the biggest
Man yet), And I've got a shitload of ideas spinning in my head for
possible art projects that I can't possibly pull off myself. So if
you're stuck for an idea, let's talk. I've been collecting stuff
that would make for great starter-kits for an art project. It's down
at Sun Aura, so drop by our campsite and see if any of it sparks an
idea in you. It's all burnable.

Remember, if you intend to burn your art at AuraMan, please keep it
as environmentally-friendly as possible (wood, metal, paper,
cardboard, cloth). No plastic, rubber, treated lumber, and
definitely NO glass (ouch!). "Safety Third".

See ya soon -------
