Hi everyone-
Below is a call-for-participants for a community art project I’m working on about Somerville. Hope you decide to participate!
Thanks!
Tim
–
What will the future hold for Somerville? We’re trying to figure that out, and we need your help!
“The history of Somerville, 2010-2100″ is an art project that explores what the future might be like. If you’d like to participate, please let us know any of the following:
1. What do you think (or hope, or fear) you will personally be doing in the future? And when you think it will happen by? (Will you buy a condo in Union Square in 2043? Will you have twins in 2011? Will your unborn child become a famous pianist in 2074?)
2. What you think (or hope, or fear) Somerville will be like in the future? (Will there be hi-rise apartment buildings in Davis Square? Will the plague strike? Will your neighborhood be gentrified? When?)
Tell us a story! Draw us a picture! Make us a map! All participants will receive full credit for their images, concepts, stories, and data; they will also receive a copy of the illustrated timeline that we will produce.
We can be reached at future.of.somerville(at)gmail.com , and our website is at http://timdevin.com/historyofsomerville.html .
We hope to hear from you!

All information received by June 30, 2009 will be included in our
presentation at Davis Square’s Artbeat Festival in July 2009. This
presentation will include a lecture; a Future Information table; and an illustrated timeline that you can take home with you.
All information received by December 31, 2009 will be available for all to see on our website.
This project is organized by Tim Devin, and is sponsored in part by the Somerville Arts Council.
