[cc-community] [Icommons] Reminder: Artist in Residence suggestions deadline

What we really need is an iCommons representative to explain the
purpose for bringing these artists to the Summit.  Depending on who is
selected, I can imagine several ways that they may provide valuable
contributions.  For example,

- Providing an 'on the ground' perspective to conversations about
creative communities
- Lending legitimacy to the Commons movement in the eyes of
contemporary arts communities
- Bringing the language of the Commons back to their communities
- Performing at parties, exhibiting in gathering spaces
- Creating artifacts from the summit
