Meet by the last car. You may join at any station, but the fun starts at Downsview :) $free + appropriate for all ages.

Seeking art installations! Please read the following guidelines to avoid an early end:

~ Leave No Trace ~

Pack it in - pack it out.
Clean up all litter.
No smoking or open alcohol.
Do not touch the ads - at all.

~ Goal: Zero Disruption ~

Do not hold doors.
Keep off the seats - PLEASE! This is what sets off the emergency alarm.

See you there!

*** Fight Global Warming ***

On November 2nd, 2006 we are installing a massive installation in downtown Toronto. We will create a giant sculpture of a cloud of greenhouse gases to demonstrate the amount of carbon dioxide created by a Canadian in a single day. We are helping WWF-Canada bring the message home: globalwarming is a fact and the only way to stop it is to act now.

Expect the message delivered in style - with a free, all-day downtown event.

*** Name Your Lane ***

Many moons ago, Newmindspace created a project called "Name Your Lane",which encourages people to officially name the alleys that run behind their houses in Toronto. The website gives people the appropriate tools to name these humble spaces to turn them into places. This neighbourly attention can turn alleys from places of neglect and vandalism into places of community and art. Our alleys in Toronto are at risk of being gated now, so take a moment to check out the website:

1. HELP NEWMINDSPACE FIGHT CLIMATE CHANGE

On October 30th, Newmindspace is partnering with one of Canada's largest environmental organizations to create two massive installations downtown - think "disasters in Toronto" - to draw attention to the greatest threat facing our planet: global warming.

We need a large, dedicated crew of volunteers to help us pull this one off. We will need people at all times of the day from before the work/school day until after it. To sign up, enter your e-mail address at:

http://www.newmindspace.com/fightclimatechange.php

There will be one meeting beforehand and then on October 30th, we act! :)

2. NIGHT LIGHTS UPDATE

"So I hear you guys are planning some kind of like... sky party?"

We're still waiting on those LED's from China... however, we are pleased to announce the addition of (fly)light by Pearl Chen, as well as a map and diagram of the installation site. This info is available at

http://www.newmindspace.com/nightlights.php

We also have concerns that our installation will interfere with migratory birds, which may cause this event to get delayed further. Who knows.

5. ZOMBIE WALK!

Oh yeah! The zombie walk is this Sunday! For those of you who missed it last year, it was absolutely hilarious. Imagine a massive horde of undead shuffling through Cabbagetown, Ryerson, a rally in Dundas Square and then the mall :-)

Anyway, check out http://www.torontozombiewalk.com/
