| The programme aimed to work both as both a dragnet and a filter, to invite in a broad constituency of interests and gauge where the concentrations and intensities might lie. In the end, the event swiftly self-marketed along ley lines of association, as rapid word of mouth ticket sales kept attendance almost entirely within existing networks (even if these did reach as far as Hong Kong). This made for a strange constraint, overlapping close and far flung neighbourhoods and the fear of being wedding-like was on our minds. However I would still be cautious to describe these networks as homogeneous or coherent - even bringing an art crowd together with the Cube staff/audiences made for an unwieldy and effective collage. | The programme aimed to work both as both a dragnet and a filter, to invite in a broad constituency of interests and gauge where the concentrations and intensities might lie. In the end, the event swiftly self-marketed along ley lines of association, as rapid word of mouth ticket sales kept attendance almost entirely within existing networks (even if as far flung as Malta, Serbia and Hong Kong). This made for an unplanned constraint and the fear of being wedding-like was on our minds. However I would be cautious to describe these interlocking networks as homogeneous or coherent - even bringing an art crowd together with the Cube staff/audiences made for an unwieldy and effective collage. |

| Working across two venues served to extend the concept of the Cube, its operations, administration and self-image, well beyond the building. It also stretched our organising capacity and human energies to the limits. As a determinedly all-volunteer workforce with a proud tradition of attention to detail, this work was woven into and around other occupations (painting and decorating, lecturing, telephone sales, archiving, public speaking, parenting and not ironically admin roles). Fpr the 3-day event, Cube ushers took days off well-paid jobs elsewhere to work back-to-back shifts, involving a lot of cleaning. | Working across two venues served to extend the concept of the Cube, its operations, administration and self-image, well beyond the building.

| The festival performed a demonstration of a wealth of resources which ran counter to a litany of monetary scarcity that surges through many conversations in the arts (as elsewhere). These included a feast, a [[https://feraltrade.org/radmin/radmin_ashton_court.jpg|mansion]], several repositories of cash and the richness of innumerable projects and lives' works. In the end, life rather than money loomed over the event as the scarce resource. A slew of largely health-related reasons caused a number of last minute cancellations. Conversely, two days of brilliant winter [[https://feraltrade.org/radmin/radmin_convention_lunch.jpg|sun]] set the scene well beyond our ability to stage-manage. | The festival performed a demonstration of a wealth of resources which ran counter to a litany of monetary scarcity that surges through many conversations in the arts (as elsewhere).
