Milwaukee Now the Sexiest City
Milwaukee is now, according to Marie Claire Magazine, its sexiest city.
Finally, after six years, Bucketworks has achieved a primary mission!

Bandwidth Upgrade Ordered
Today I submitted an order to TDS Metrocom for a bandwidth upgrade for Bucketworks. As soon as the installation is complete (don't have dates yet) we will have a 3MB symmetrical DSL connection (3 up, 3 down.)

The Smart Play
One person starts the process. They select another person, or rotate their hat twenty degrees, and start thinking about the other people they need. Sometimes they send a message to many, many strangers (using a newspaper's classified ads section, or the internet) inviting them to a brief interview. Sometimes they invite people they know from past experience.

Bucketworks Logos of the Past
I've been going through some of our historical archives, and I wonder what you think of some of our past designs for the Bucketworks logo.
This is the original design, from June of 2002.

Wish List
The Bucketworks Wishlist
A number of people have said to us that they can't afford to donate much money, but they would love to donate their stuff or their time. Below please find a list ranging from physical items, volunteer opportunities, and large long-term goals that you can help with.

Questions build collaboration in Milwaukee
Bucketworks has been a participant in the Milwaukee arts and culture scene for six years, although I feel a little hesitation about the idea of saying that we're involved with arts and culture because many people are afraid of both of those words-- at least, afraid in the sense that they don't think the terms apply to them or that 'art' or 'culture' is something they produce.

BarCamp and DevHouse: Agenda and Challenge
I was talking with Kev last night about DevHouse and BarCamp Madison 08 FAIL, and thinking about the idea of hosting Barcamp Madison in Milwaukee at Bucketworks. Kev brought up the idea of doing it just like the original-- two weeks to plan and execute. We already have DevHouse coming up, so why not just combine the two?

Take A Look from the Inside Out Live Feed
Join us this Saturday from 1-4 PM for Friends of Oakton Manor's Take a Look from the Inside Out show, which is the culmination of several months of work by residents of Oakton Manor, students from MIAD, members of local churches Brew City, Elmbrook, and Metrobrook, and Bucketworks.

Pyromancy Footage
This Saturday's Pyromancy event was a beautiful demonstration of the kind of multi-media art and performance shows the Bucketworks environment was created to host. Producers, audience, and performers all enjoyed the show and were pleased with the results. It's also the first time we have hosted two performance events in our new space in the same night.
