Yes. I totally agreed about the venue and festival suggestion. It would be nice if the venue is around place which is convenient and not far away, What about Invent Center at Kwl Tong? University campus or park are all very good suggestions. Not sure if APA/HK Art Center got venue for this kind of event. it would be great if the venue with academia, art or technology background because most of existing the CC community are from that areas, got some kind of symbolic meaning.

It should be fun if the event invovles a lot fun activities and in a creative way. e.g. people who used cc can show their work a the venue after the ceremony/announcement and talked to the visitor or spread the words of using cc. Bands show are great! Other suggestions: cc artist exhibition corner, how to use hk-cc information poster corner and a computer/online demo corner etc.

Cheers,
Uta

1. i like the idea of concert and festival more. there are some independent bands in hk which are interested to use cc. and the function can help to promote them. i am in contact with a couple of them: NOISE, BLACK BOX, PINK "A", etc. if we have budget, we can invite the chinese migrant worker band and some taiwan bands to hk. as cc is about "using" and "sharing", conference is not a good format.

2. agree to make it before or after the conference in june

3. Sun and Sat (late afternoon) can get more people. especially if it is a concert and festival, it takes some time to set up the sound system. the sat and sun schedule can also attract more journalists as there are usually no serious news during weekend.

4. For the venue, the cyberport is a bit desolated from the community in terms of its location. It is not an "event place" in most people's mind. Maybe an university campus or a park or if it is a Sunday, we can book the central street (pedestrian zone). of course, june can be rainy... indoor site can be fringe club or foreign journalist club?
