Corvallis Word Factory... Now!

The traditional white box gallery space is meant to host artwork with a visual component – painting, illustration, installation, sculpture, performance, and more. You know what else is visual? Words. And for a few days in March, Corvallis poets and wordsmiths of all kinds are invited to invade the CEI Artworks Gallery in this very spirit.
Word Factory is a five day show that will begin with a 24 hour “poetry campout, during which time I’ll be present working on new "poems" (using this term loosely...) and curating yours. Join me and others to write, read, discuss, share writing /poetry /text art stories, or just hang out (and help me stay awake). The Artworks gallery will be converted into a workshop with a few writing tools and resources. All material written in house or contributed during the overnight event will go up on the walls and remain there as a public exhibit for the following four days. After the exhibit goes down I will scan everything and turn it into a free-to-download PDF book, which will be available from www.johnnybeaverart.com (and can be freely copied and hosted elsewhere). Release forms and all that jazz will be provided as you hand over your work.
What kind of work is accepted? If its made of text, you're good to go. I encourage experimentalism!
Word Factory runs from March 10th through 14th with the opening 24 hour event from 11am pm the 10th until 11am the next morning. In order for this exhibit to work, poets and writers of all kinds need to come out and join in. PLEASE, spread the word like a plague. As in a friendly plague that everyone likes. If I have to cover the walls myself, I will... and it will be terrible.
Note: It's likely that I won't be able to return original work due to the volume of material, etc. I'll need to sit on them for weeks for scanning and trying to hunt everyone down is a job for someone more organized. :)
