Mental State: Curious

Yesterday was the big registration day, with most of
the attendants rolling into town. So today is the first day proper with
all of the media, talks, seminars, kicking in. The awards part is in
full swing as well — they handed out awards last night for Direct and
Promo. No idea how any of that went, though, as we have been holed up
preparing for our workshop this afternoon. It will be about Camp
Organic on the road; we’re bringing it to the masses. Hopefully people
who attend will take the idea of workshop as literally as we are:
“work” = you will be expected to do something, and “shop” = come
together as a group, not buy Chanel (very popular in these parts). We
will be filming and posting, so keep on the lookout. We will report in
tomorrow on how the workshop went, media and what we are seeing that is
exciting. Let the games begin…
