May 15, 2013 from 7pm to 11pm

He became fascinated by paint, plaster and coatings used for thousands of years to create art and architecture. His shop, SurfaceFX in the same complex as the Pescadrome has become a magnet for architects, artists and anyone interested in transforming wood, metal, and concrete into works of art. This Wednesday, Michael will show a broad range of amazing…See More

"Congratulations with creating such an incredible, awe inspiring, magical, transformative and utterly captivating environment @ the Pesci for New Years Eve!  You should all be very, very, very proud of yourselves and busting out of your seams.  W O W ! ! ! !

10 Amazing Lessons from Albert Einstein:

1)

 Follow Your Curiosity

“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”



What piques your curiosity? I am curious as to what causes one person to succeed while another person fails; this is why I’ve spent years studying success. What are you most curious about? The pursuit of your curiosity is the secret to your success.



2) Perseverance is Priceless

“It's not that I'm so smart; it's just that I stay… Continue

Emerging relationship of artist and art enthusiast

"the relationship between an artist and a fan is evolving into something richer and deeper than was ever possible before. The fan is emerging as a patron, a collaborator and a curator of art as we participate in the emerging social experiences created by artists or even fans themselves. We are not only commenting on videos, photos and new mixes but also adding our own creative contributions into a dynamic community of others who share the same passion for a particular genre or artist that we… Continue

Thanks for the welcome, Clay! Fishbon sounds vibrant--I'm eager to participate when we're in Santa Barbara. We'd love to find ecovillage organic gardening communities to call home in both the Santa Barbara area and here in Costa Rica!

Clay, Thanks for the welcome! Unfortunately, I just found out that I'm moving back to the midwest in the next week or two. I don't think Fishbon events are in the cards for me, but I'm glad to know that such a wonderful, eclectic space exists in SB!

I show a film (I have the equipment but not a screen; do you have a screen?) Im friends with Cameron and hes willing to help as well. The film is called LAUGHOLOGY; 65 minutes.. and then we shift, move the chairs out of the way and I lead a laughter yoga session (if theres carpeting thats great, if not people may need to bring towels or a yoga mat, but its not required....) which lasts about 55 minutes. If you want to read what its about, http://ning.it/9ScMSw is great place to start with video links, more articles, testimonials, etc.
thanks Clay.

Hi Clay, thanks for the welcoming note... Did you hear from Ronit about me possibly screening a film called LAUGHOLGY and leading a laughter yoga session there? How does that work? And can people leave a donation basket? Here is a flyer we did when we did it July 25th at the Faulkner... and got 44 people:

Hello, Clay. Surprise! Go to Chaucer's bookstore and pick up the prepaid book reserved for you. It was a serendipitous happening, you may have the book already, but you can never have too many goddesses around! I noticed that the total eclipse this Saturday lands right on your Venus. She's waiting for you in an ancient story. Early birthday greetings, Kelley

Mission and Purpose

Fishbon’s Purpose:
Fishbon's purpose is to provide a forum, education and support for creative collaboration, mentorship and the visceral experience of visual, aural and performance-based art.  It is also to provide exhibition media for the artists and their art forms.

Fishbon’s Mission:
Fishbon's mission is to encourage collaboration between artists, technologists, writers, designers, performers and participants to create unique, real-time, compelling aesthetic experiences that speak to contemporary audiences.  Fishbon believes the synergy (sharings of perspectives and skills) made possible in a collaborative space creates a unique and special context for art.  By providing context, physical infrastructure, tools, mentoring support and encouragement for creative collaboration, Fishbon is an experiential incubator for emerging cooperative working models.  Much more about the process experience than final product, Fishbon creates a diverse "interactive" learning community that would be difficult to achieve in isolated individual working environments.

Fishbon is a 501 (c) (3) arts organization
