Canvas Round Table #2

Calling all Canvas members and friends, again! We'd love to invite you to join us for an evening of meeting new people, creative discussion, sharing and ideation!

Canvas Round Table is based loosely around the format pioneered by our good friend Jean Snow for PauseTalk (http://pausetalk.org/). We'll get together around a big table in our humble office, briefly introduce ourselves to the group, and then get talking as a group! The conversation will be fluid, but we'll have a loose list of topics to discuss to keep things flowing nicely if needed. In particular, we'd love to discuss with you how we can make Canvas better and stronger for the community!

There will be opportunities to share your Canvas creations with the group, ask others about theirs, talk about features you'd like to see on Canvas in the future, ask for advice from the group and more!

We'll be providing snacks, beer etc, so the only thing you need to bring is yourself and your creative mind!

Spaces are limited to 15, so please ensure you only sign up if you intend to turn up! If you discover later on that you won't be able to attend, please ensure you update your RSVP so your place can be given to someone in the waitlist!

We're looking forward to seeing you!

Team Canvas

Please note, in order for us to be able to improve Canvas based on our discussion, we'll be recording the audio of the event for our own internal use. It will not be published on the net or shared with anyone.

Note from Mark:

CNN are making a TV show about foreign businessmen/entrepreneurs in Tokyo for international broadcast... and it looks like they're going to feature me as one of them!!! Not sure why they think it would make good TV, but I'm up for it, haha!

The thing is, they're interested in filming the Round Table event as a part of what I do, but we would need to get your permission to be included in the show.

So... if you would NOT like to be included in the filming, please let me know. It's absolutely no problem if you'd prefer not to, but if you are OK with getting 5 minutes of international fame (plus perhaps an opportunity to get your creations or creativity shown!), it could be pretty great!

Those who are OK with being filmed would be asked to sign a release on the evening, saying that footage of you can be used.

Could be a lot of fun, great exposure for us all, and an opportunity to show off the power of Tokyo's creative community!!!
