Re: Unsubscribe



Suppose I was fairly warned.  Missed the buried forwarded text.  Apologies for SPAM.

Heya Mike, sorry you didn't take the time to google but this is how you remove yourself from the list. Thanks for the swan song though.

To unsubscribe, don't send your unsubscribe message to the list. 

Instead, do the following:

Send an e-mail with the word "unsubscribe" in both the subject and body, 
and no sig files or anything else, to:

<Loopers-Delight-request@loopers-delight.com>

If you are on the digest version of Looper's Delight, send your 
unsubscribe request to:

<Loopers-Delight-d-request@loopers-delight.com>

Don't send your unsubscribe messages to the list, or people will make fun 
of you and you will feel foolish.  --EXACTLY

Cheers,

I've been advocating for you since before I met many of you, so please take these into consideration as we move forward.

Please look at the world around you.  The very notions of live music and art as you grew up understanding them are about to be rendered extinct by commerce.

Also the popularity of your craft is at a global high.  The next steps to show it off to the world, share it with others, and have society embrace you for the brilliant makers you are are critical.  The language of commerce is challenging.  Please don't shy away from it.

I know it's hard to make art.  I want you to continue doing so for as long as you want as part of the life you want to build.

Thanks for exploring a craft worth sharing and building a community worth preserving.

Okay.  Now remove me from the list.

I mean all of this, very sincerely.

If you don't believe me, I'm at 4129450079 and have five minutes for whoever needs it during this transition.

Be well and safe.

Hi Y2K Admins,

Rick (cc'd) mentioned to me that Y2K is now a fully-formed 501(c)3.

PHILLTER is currently in a direction to be formed as a B-corporation, which uses a triple bottom line audit of profit, environmental considerations, and social good.  We see this as the best formation to benefit the artists we will be advocating and supporting, which have extensive overlap with the live looping community.  Our current goal is to have the company essentially owned and operated by its arts-driven staff within 10 years, although there is much to learn about the form that will take.

We were informally considering a nonprofit to gift the company to at some point during its lifetime after it is built.  We could build it, or we could tether it to another one at some point.  We would prefer it be a cooperative form which it appears Y2K would be well suited for, so if that's something you'd consider, let us know.

The benefit to Y2K would be straightforward -- money to do as it wishes with -- and the exchanges could be minimal in return.

In the meantime, we'd love a list of other-festival contacts to start examining the possibility of sponsoring Y2K artists (as in, us just paying you for someone you already were going to have), which seems like an easy place to start a dialogue.  Once we've talked with the Santa Cruz grandaddy, of course, since this suggestion came from Rick himself a few years ago.

Let us know if you're interested.

Best,
Mike Yanchak / Mike Why
