Okay Photographers-
The Diplopia Show is next Thursday! If you're in the show, and haven't picked up postcards yet, I'm told Colleen has a bunch on her desk in the Academic Director's Office, on the third floor. I myself am undergoing a process I dub "geurilla advertising". If I see a message board somewhere, a postcard goes up.
If you would like to help hang the show, we will meet at the Northrup King building on Tuesday morning at 10:30 am. I don't know how long it will take to hang the show, but I will be there as long as it takes.
IMPORTANT: This means work MUST be in by Monday, December 1st! Printed and framed, please. Once again, black frames, white mats. No size restrictions or set number of diptychs. Please leave work outside Colleen Mullins' office in the Academic Director's office on the third floor.
Due to the surprising verbal turnout, we may have to nix the idea for a "personal" wall. This is not set in stone, however. It all depends on the number of submissions we receive. ALSO! If you have work in the show, we are asking that you contribute some foodstuff to the opening. Anything Hors-d'euvre-y is great. I am taking the responsibility for drinks, I plan on having two large coffee urns and a punch bowl at the ready. This is going to be a huge gallery night, so we'll get a lot of overflow traffic.
There is also a possibility that there will be a second gallery night Saturday, December 6th. This will not nearly as busy as the opening on Thursday, but I hear it will be free and some of the other galleries will have their doors open as well. This will be around 12-5 that afternoon, and we will need someone to be there if our doors are to be open. E-mail us and let us know if you are interested.
Tear-down for the show will be Sunday, Dec 7th. There is a show going up in Gallery 332 the following Tuesday, and they are hanging Monday the 8th. If you can help out, again, e-mail us and let us know.
Ashley Miller is planning on making business card title cards for us, so with your submissions, please include a piece of paper with your:
Name
Title of piece
Medium used (Silver Gelatin, Inkjet Print, etc)
On to the meeting:
We had a quick meeting Tuesday this week. Mostly it was to finalize plans for the show, but we did have a question needing to be addressed regarding the holiday photo shoot fundraiser. For those of you who remember, Photo Club last year had a holiday photo shoot, in which clients would fill out order forms for Christmas cards and the like and we would photoraph them and/or their family. This unfortunately was not a huge success, but the question was brought up to Photo Club this year by Colleen.
We decided to decline for this year.
With all the work put into the show, and the timing (it would be an extremely late start) myself and several members decided to scrap that idea, with the intention of revisiting the option next year.
Okay, so we're all caught up now. If I've forgotten to mention anything, or if you are confused about the show at all, please e-mail me at aiphotoclub@gmail.com. Looking forward to next Thursday!

Photo Club President

Diplopia Post Card!
Okay. I know I just updated. But here are the front and back of the postcards Jorie and I designed last night:
Meeting: 11 November 2008
Hey dudes! Hoping your midterms are going well.
Photo Club had a meeting yesterday. Correction: Jorie, Ashley Miller and I had a meeting and Anthony Marchetti was nice enough to join us. =) No one's fault; midterm week was crazy, the majority of the officers were in Cleveland this weekend for SPE regional. Ads were not there, and we understand that. Anyway!...
Our show for Photo Club, "Diplopia", is set for December 4th! We have "the large space" in the Northrup King Building, as opposed to the "small space." So, this means:
1. Submissions, submissions, submissions! Get them to us, we want your work up on our walls!
2. No size limits! I've heard concerns expressed from students that they feel constrained by the 11x14 limit. We've abolished that. I (Evan) am planning on purchasing a roll of paper for my work, and if you want to get in on that, let me know.
3. Separate frames are totally cool! They can be the same image in one frame, or two separate frames. No restrictions here, either!
4. The only thing we want to regulate is the frames themselves. Any size, but we are looking for black frames, and white mats. The officers and I are going to IKEA for our own, and that means cheap stuff!
We would love your stuff about a week or so before the show so we can set up. Also, our refreshments are going as pot-luck-y, so if you submit work, please bring something snacky for our gallery browsers to munch on as they contemplate our AWESOME work.
I will post a PDF of our postcard design soon. Our description of our show is "Photographs that split the perception of a single concept into two distinct images."
Our featured website this week was Smashing Magazine, a great website that isn't necessarily focused on photography, but is very design-oriented and a good source of inspiration for artists such as ourselves. Our featured photographer was Anthony Goicolea, a photographer mentioned by Kelli Connell, a speaker at SPE that we saw, who references him in her own work.
Our next meeting will be Week 8, Tuesday evening at 5:00 pm. We will have adverts and e-mails this time, promise!
Peace Out,
Evan Pape

Photo Club goes to Cleveland!
For our second annual road trip to SPE's regional midwest conference we trekked our way across the states to Cleveland, OH.
Aside from rain and some poor directions we had a great time! One of the group's favorite speakers was Kelli Connell. You can check out her website here:

Fall '08 - 1st Meeting: 21 October 2008
Welcome back, students.
At the meeting on Tuesday we decided a name for our show at the Northrup King. In keeping with the theme of diptychs, the name of our show is "Diplopia."
Wikipanion gives this info on dipolopia: Diplopia, commonly known as double vision, is the simultaneous perception of two images of a single object.
The deadline to submit images for the show is 28 November. The show date is 4 December. Anyone in the program can contribute any number of diptychs for the show. The Photo Club will be printing postcards for the event and submitting press releases to the local monthlies and weeklies.
At the meeting we also saw work by Brian Ulrich. Ulrich gave a talk at Ai a few quarters ago, and will be speaking at the Midwest SPE Conference in November.
We also introduced two contests: BluDomain's contest for photographers photographing themselves with a peace sign, and the 29th Annual College Photography Contest, sponsored by the magazine Photographer's Forum.
The next meeting will be week six, same room (319 - the lighting studio) at 5 pm. I was talking about maybe implementing meetings every week, and alternating days for those of you who have class or work Tuesday evenings. Let me know what days/times will work best for these alternate meetings. I'd like to get more involvement than what we have now.
Thanks guys. Hope to see some images for our show.

President

We discussed the public art project in the Macy's/IDS skyway, "Speaking of Home"

We also talked about artist 'tsevis' on flickr. His work combines hundreds of photographs to create a collage of a single image. Many of his works relate to current events and have been published in magazines.

Summer Quarter 1st Meeting
Hope everyone is having a great summer quarter so far! Here are the topics we went over at today's meeting:
UPCOMING EVENT:
Lecture with Mary Virginia Swanson & Debra Weiss
@ MCAD Wednesday, September 10th
Ai Students get in FREE with ID.
There is an opportunity for Photo Club to have a group gallery showing. To make this a "group" showing we will have to chose a common theme that ties us all together. Bring your brainstorming ideas to our next meeting when we discuss this topic further.
If you have any ideas for Fundraisers for this quarter, email them to the club email! Some suggestions this quarter have been another bake sale, and possibly a home-built photo booth.
This meeting's featured photographer is Alex Wright. Check out his work, there's everything from commercial studio work to some polaroids.
This quarter we are finally going to have a group shoot! We are going to the Minnesota State Fair on Labor Day. There's no school this day so its a perfect day for us all to get together, capture the unique culture that is the Minnesota State Fair and have some fun while we're at it! Photo Club will pay for tickets and one roll of film for you to shoot with (if you're interested in shooting film). We need a head count ASAP, so if you're interested in attending send an email to aiphotoclub@gmail.com!
We presently have two officer positions available: Secretary and Vice President. The requirements to become either are to be active participants of photo club. To be Vice President, you must have attended at least 4 quarters at Ai. If you're interested in either of these positions, email the photo club.
We are also due for elections at the end of this quarter. Here's a break down of the responsibilities of each position:
President: Leads and oversees all meetings, also helps plan dates. Plans events, trips, group shoots, fundraisers, finds and suggests featured photographers, and websites.
Vice President: Leads meetings when President cannot attend a meeting, plans fundraisers, also finds and suggests featured photographers.
Secretary: Takes attendance at meetings, sends meeting emails, updates blog, and hangs meeting posters.
Treasurer: Responsible for all funds and assets of the club.
Keep these positions in mind, elections will be week 10 or 11. Each candidate nominates his or herself, and gives a brief speech to the group to tell us why they think they're the right ones for the position!
Our next meeting will be held Week 7, August 25th 5pm in room 339, hope to see you there!
