We discussed the public art project in the Macy's/IDS skyway, "Speaking of Home"
http://www.speakingofhome.org/
There are a lot of people involved in this project, not just the curator. If you haven't seen it in person yet, take a walk through the skyway on your next lunch break to see it. It's up until Oct. 31st.
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.

We are also excited to announce our guest speaker for this quarter! Eliesa of Photogen-Inc will be visiting us on Monday, September 15th at 5PM! Check back to see where she will be speaking. We're hoping for either the gourmet gallery, or art gallery on the first floor!

Our next meeting will be Week 9, September 8th at 5pm in room 339. At this time the officers will take submissions for this quarter's elections. If you're interested in a position, write a paragraph about why you think you should be elected.

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!
