[diem's list] Season of changes redux...
A few weeks back I posted an open letter to the community, called
"season of changes". In it, I talked about how our community has gone
through many changes, and as part of the process in changing was my
desire to see us as a community work together toward direct action
projects. I asked for you to go to EschFest, or alternatively buy a
raffle ticket. And you all came through in a big way.
"season of changes". In it, I talked about how our community has gone
through many changes, and as part of the process in changing was my
desire to see us as a community work together toward direct action
projects. I asked for you to go to EschFest, or alternatively buy a
raffle ticket. And you all came through in a big way.
A few select members of the community, spearheaded by Evil Dave,
created EschFest, to benefit the children of Nathan Esch, burner and
friend, who died after an accident at fourth of JuPlaya last year. As
a result of EschFest, over $4500 was netted. But what is the net
result? With $4500 in the bank, being guided by the best broker we
know, and with eight years to work on growing the account, we have
paid off a hefty chunk of the college funds for the boys. As a
community we provided what Nathan no longer could. And I am very very
proud to be part of *us*.
The second project I highlighted was Kipa Ana. Kipa Ana is this
Saturday! As mentioned before, all net proceeds are gong to a burner
founded non-profit organization, called C.O.L.O.R. Scott and Jen
Longheyer founded COLOR in response to the tsunamis of 2005. It is my
favorite kind of non-profit: direct action.
All details are at the site:

[diem's list] Kipa ana is next week/tattoo?
Just two quick notes everyone!
1) Kipa Ana is next week!
2) Tattoo trade anyone? Pass it on!
****************************************
Kipa Ana is next week! And we're getting excited around here! You can buy
pre-sale tickets at:
http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/15508
Remember--100% of net proceeds go *directly* to fund tutoring programs for
Sri Lankan children. One year of English tutoring is only $240, and it
only takes one person in a family with a job speaking English to bring
them all out of poverty level.
You *can* directly make a difference!
**************************************************
I design websites as a side project, and am looking to barter tattoo work
for a website for you.
Generally I charge from $50/$100 hour, but would like to do a swap on a
hour per hour basis. If I spend 5 hours on your site, I get 5 hours
tattooing, if I spend 10 hours on your site, I get 10 hours tattooing, and
so on.
Want your site to look awesome?
Here are the sites I have made:
http://www.djdiem.com
http://www.massiveburn.org
http://www.kipaana.com
http://pgnew.djdiem.com
http://hammer.djdiem.com

http://www.eschfest.com
http://www.ricandjan.com

http://tms.djdiem.com
http://wedding.djdiem.com
http://wafinancial.net
Also, "pgnew" is not yet live to the world (hence squirrel sex image
placeholders) as I am waiting for final images from the customer.
Keep in mind I don't create content, but can help a little in that area.
Also, as an added bonus, I can set you up with hosting for a year or show
you how to host it yourself.

[diem's list] Season of changes
This post is freaking huge, and I rarely post something this large. Please bear with me, and give me seven minutes of your time.
It's in our blood, that pesky beast called "radical self-expression". It comes standard with a monkey on its back known as the "do-acracy monkey". That monkey is a mean little guy if you ignore him, but when you feed him, and nurture him, the reward is grand.
Our community is capable of throwing one hell of a party, right? But what next? Really, when the cuddle domes are done, the trailer is swept out, where do you go from here? Our community is experiencing growing pains, and many of the people who have busted tail feeding that aforementioned monkey are tired, and need more....more *something*.
The last six years have been incredible to watch....let me tell you. Our community which was once fractured into many small pieces, due to the sheer size of Seattle and surrounding areas, and ever so slowly came together over time. One of the first stops into coming together was the FUNC, or Fremont Un-conventional Center (May Dog rest its soul). The FUnC was a new breed in the realm of event space. Many burners, primarily Stronghold and friends, created a space for us to do our thing, where we could shamelessly let *our* freak flag fly, and in 2002 it held our first SeaCompression. I'm not sure who came up with the name "SeaCompression", but I am blaming Peterman. (In fact I will blame Peterman for everything, true or not, good or bad. So there.)
Through these events came forth a sense of unity, a sense of togetherness, and a general for lack of a better term...butt-sniffing. "Who are you guys? Oh, that was YOUR camp! HA!" and other such expressions could be often heard. There were people throwing movie nights, people having dinner parties, there were the original Massives, and of course there was the Lower Level. All of these wonderful things gave rise to a burner pride in Seattle. We *knew* we were on to something great, something next level -- and we were doing more than talking about it. Many moons ago Jon Taylor hosted events at his house called "N.L.S.", or Next Level Shit meetings. (Actually, Jon is very proper, and always called them Next Level Stuff or Next Level S*** meetings on email, but we knew...) These meetings were created by us, for us, just like our events.
I have seen incredible things in this community in the past year that need to be pointed out. And I want to call your attention to three *SOMETHINGS* in particular.
* * * *
Change can be painful. When your community grows up, they face death in a major way. – not just as an abstract concept, but something that hits close to home.
Nathan Esch's passing in July of 2006 was not the first nor will it be the last. But what he did in the few years that he graced us in our chosen family meant a lot. His method of leadership was to lead by example, and he did it with great purpose. He saw the gaps that needed filling, whether it be a smile, or a ride, or a hug, or incessant blathering about the glory of bacon.
When Nathan died, he left more than a hole in our hearts, he left behind two little boys. His two sons were his life. He cared for them more than anything. As we came together last summer for his wake, people made keepsakes and mementos in a time capsule for his boys. We said our farewells, and cast wishes to two children most of us had never met.
One person who significantly changed in the last few months by , although will steadfastly deny it (maybe) is Dave Hobbs (also known as Evil Dave). When Nathan passed, Dave lost a friend, and his friend left a family behind. There was no question what needed to be done, and Dave successfully raised quite a bit of money to help the family go on. When Nathan died, Dave knew without question we had to take care of Nathan's children. He didn't ask permission, he just *knew* it was the right thing to do. But how? In this community it had never been approached or broached as a topic.
By reaching out to those who knew him best, Dave and others have put together EschFest. This is not another party, or fundraiser, but a strong community effort to take care of our *own*. Nathan's boys are 8 and 10 years old, and we thought it best that if funds were raised we could send them to college. Dave found a good broker who will work for free, and together with the family have established a trust for the boys that matures at age 18. Our goals are simple -- 100% of the net proceeds go to the boys. Keep costs low, get help where possible, raise money and send the boys to college.
The info for EschFest can be found at: http://www.Eschfest.com. There are also raffle tickets available at $5/each for those that cannot attend the festival but wish to contribute. I update the site frequently on behalf of the EschFest team, and recommend you go to the site and hit "refresh" often to see what's new.
* * * *
The second change that happened, I was there to see the action and method in which the change came. The other two things I wanted to highlight were the Hive Mind and COLOR projects.
Hive Mind has been going on for twelve years now. It was a small gathering of friends at first, and now has grown to quite an event. The key thing, though, that separates this event from just another party is that starting in 2004, Jordan, one of the key leads of the Hive (and lead beekeeper) used this event he started to help go towards non-profits. 2004 went to Theatre Babylon, and 2005 and 2006 went to Room to Read. Room to Read is an amazing non-profit, and started with a MS employee who bought books by the pound and personally led them in by pack animal to his destinations in outer Asia. It was inspiring to see the actions of people using their talents for the common good. It was almost a no-brainer--of course we can donate the funds raised form having a good time!
C.O.L.O.R. (http://www.coloraid.org) is a 501c3 non-profit started by Scott and Jen Longheyer, two old soul burners, Scott was one of the three people who put their head on the line for the first Critical Massive, and has been a community fixture for years. When Scott and Jen saw the devastation from the Tsunami in late 2004, they *knew* they had to do something. In a matter of only two months (which, incidentally, normally takes two years!), they put together a full 501c3 non-profit, and went to work. Their completed projects included rebuilding a school and adding in a computer lab, and current projects include monthly beach cleanups and scholarships for schoolchildren.
Finally, to the last bit of this open letter to my community.
When people get married, traditionally you have a reception. But for what purpose? To bring together people and celebrate the new union. However, the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to give back to the community instead. They have given me so much, and I thought it appropriate to give back to them. Angel heartily agreed, and through the inspiration of Hive Mind, I spoke with Scott and Jen and asked their permission to throw them a fundraiser. They agreed, and we started the ball rolling.
It is with great excitement I bring forth Kipa'Ana. Kipa'Ana is Hawaiian for "reception". It is true to the word "community" – every person who is there has volunteered their help, including the bands, door folks, and bartenders. 100% of the funds raised goes directly towards C.O.L.O.R.. The best part about C.O.L.O.R. is that, just like EschFest, there is no middleman. You are directly contributing to the welfare of others. You can fin more info about Kipa'Ana at www.kipaana.com.
I am asking you one of two favors for this summer, and both are contained here in this letter. The first is to attend EschFest, or alternatively seek out whoever is selling raffle tickets at the next big event you are at. Or even better, be the person who takes charge of that one event, and sell the raffle tickets. Your four hours of work is a great start toward college education. Next, go to Kipa'Ana, and help support the children of Sri Lanka. Attending this event*directly* changes the lives of those schoolchildren.
As our community grows up and out, don't be afraid to make a difference. Volunteer for someone. Create an event. Make it happen. Start something new that benefits not just our little circle of friends and freaks, but the wider community in which you live. Take that thing we do and take it as far as you can, and it can be the start of something incredible.
Thanks for listening.
Dave Martinez

[diem's list] end of march/april
Greetings y'all! The end of March is near, and there are just a few things to let you know about:
1) Vote for SomaFM! (now)
2) Vote for Beehive! (now)
3) Utilikilts 7-year itch (March 31)
3) Z-trip! (April 6th)
4) I'm getting hitched! (April 21st)
5) Flight To Mars Presents: Skylab (April 21st)
7) How to get off this crazy list
\<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/
What is somaFM? If you haven't heard it, check this:
and click on "groove salad".
I've been listening for *years* to this station, commercial-free, and it's practically the soundtrack to my house. With *no* thanks to the bastards at the RIAA, soma fm and all independent internet radio stations will be priced out of existence. PLEASE, go to their homepage and read the article and write your senator---and do this now. Seriously folks, this is important to me and SOMA needs your help!
\<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/
Beehive? Who the heck is The Beehive? Only the best rocktronica evah. Alethea programs Ableton and Reason, and slams it out live while singing and controlling deuling laptops, and Dave plays guitars (including a wicked slide guitar) and sings. This duo makes music you've never heard--there is *no* comparison. They are so unique, that for the CMJ awards they were nominated for THREE different categories! YES YES! So, I want you to vote for them, por favor...Here's their info:
------------------------
First we would like to invite you to vote for Beehive at the CMJ sponsored contest "Ourstage"
Beehive is the only band to be finalists in three different categories: Rock, Alternative and Pop! We also ended the semifinals with a number one spot in categories of Rock and Alternative. However with competitions like this, a number one spot can change at any moment and we need your vote to help us win this competition.
To get more info about this competition- sign up for your free account here at www.ourstage.com/go/cmj. There you can find detailed instruction for text voting and you can also hear and see all the bands participating in this competition.
When you decided to vote for Beehive, we ask that you vote for the songs "Better than Lies" in the Alternative category off of our new album "Pretty Little Thieves" which will be available May 2007 and/or for the song "One" in the Rock category from 'Cycle A" .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The code to text message your vote for "Better than Lies" is ALT01.
The code to text message for "One" ROCK07
Which is then sent to the number 78243 (which spells STAGE)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can text vote as often as you like, but please keep in mind that voting costs 50 cents for each text, which Ourstage says helps to pay for the prizes.
The text messaging competition begins at midnight EST March 27th 2007 and ends March 31st 2007 at Midnight EST (Thats 9 PM Seattle Time)
We thank everyone who supported us to make it to the finals! It's an honor to be here and thank you for being our friends and fans!!
\<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/ \<>/
I was not sure you had gotten an invite before, but I wanted to make
sure that you knew that Utilikilts will be throwing a 7 Year Itch
Party on March 31, 2007. Not only will this party be to celebrate
each and every person who supported us in our first 7 years, but it
will also help to usher us into a new era. It will serve as the
official grand opening of our Pioneer Square Flagship Store, our
adventure into wholesale, and our dedication to taking our company to
the next level while still embracing our original ethos and staying
true to our values.
First and foremost, you are invited to attend! Bring yourself, bring
your family, bring your friends, and join us for food and drinks!
There will be live bands, DJs, burlesque dancers, fire performers,
NANDA the amazing acrobaticalists, circus performers, Freaks, Geeks,
a stripper clown who also does balloon animals (for real!), and all
the magical mayhem that we can cook up. This is our Big One, the
Real Deal, the Party to Put All Parties to Shame, and it won't be the
same if you're not there. This is the biggest thing to happen to us
in a long time, for a long time, and you will be missed if you are
not in attendance. Please RSVP and let me know whether or not you
will be able to make it.
It would break my heart if you did not come to enjoy yourself,
especially if you came to hang out for awhile, and there are some
major slots for a few honorary performers left...would you be willing
to play? Utilikilts, and of course, myself personally, would love to
hear a DJ Diem set. There is a pretty substantial list running
between 8pm and 10pm, but we want this place to be FILLED with
performers, presentations, and projects...and people to stick around
make an event of the night.
In frith,

It's true, I'm getting hitched! Angel and I are sneaking off to Big Island, Hawaii, and will be married at sunset (6:48pm) on April 21st. We are then staying for the next weekend for ReBirth, the Hawaii Burning Man regional event. It's held in a jungle clearing outside Hilo, and man, I can't wait. Got some money burning a hole in your pocket? Join us:

My Burning Man theme camp, Flight To Mars, is more than just that. Last year we voted to go year round, with projects of all kinds. We were lucky to be given every third Saturday at the Lower Level bar in CHAC. The inaugural event features Beehive (from above), as well as opener J Lo and closer Mr. Faux Faux. If I wasn't in Hawaii getting married, this is where I'd be. Since it is F2M, you *know* this is more than a bar night. Get decked out and come check it out!

Thanks for those who came out and attended my first ever photo show.
I am learning a lot, and it was interesting watching the crowd. I
sold one, and was delighted to see that! More shows will come, i
promise....
*************************************************
Just what is Four Seasons? Four Seasons is the third event produced
by Dale Phurrough's Social Living Productions. Dale spends months
preparing for each show, and it shows. Each piece performed is a
choreographed spectacle to behold. The last two shows, Tokyo 2025,
and Tokyo 2025 the revenge transformed Barca with 3 stages and
amazing dancers, food, bands, and dj's.
Here's his mission statement:

This show features more performances, and also Lee Coombs, legendary
electronic producer and dj from England (!). It's $10 at Neumo's THIS
SATURDAY March 10th. Rarely do I say the words "get there early", but
this time around you should heed my warning. You really, truly don't
want to miss the early performances. I'll be there at 9pm with my
bunny ears on.
*************************************************
Dirty Martinez Radio Show
I host the DMRS, and we are on show 16! Yeowza! We have local people
bring in one hour of whatever they want to play, from surf punk to
country, to 60's french spy jazz to boomin' beats. The second hour is
a live PA, band, or dj who is local, awesome, and fun.

This list will come out only one a week tops, likely even less. It's a
one-way announce list, so no worries about heavy traffic. This list
