Part 3 – “SHOW”. November 11th, 2011 (11/11/11)
It’s CC Festival at The Pigeonhole HackerSpaceSG, 6pm – 10pm. It’s a meetup, really.
- Here’s the Google map – g.co/maps/tv7f9. Address is 70A Bussorah Street, Singapore 199483. Walk up to the premises between 6pm – 10pm.
- HackerSpaceSG says there’s beer and wine; payment is via a tip jar/ donation bowl. If you bring along finger-foods to share, we might give you a hug (unless you’re adverse to hugging, thereby we’ll find some other way to thank you!)
- We’ll screen CC-licensed works from Singapore and worldwide. But mostly we’ll just chillax and get to know people better.
- You are welcome to find your own corner, or corner your would-be audience, to talk about your work, barcamp-style.
- We welcome all CC SG adopters to treat this like a CC Pasar Malam, promote your wares, and encourage others to use/ reuse.
NOTE: The earlier stated venue was The PigeonHole, so please update your calendars etc. to HackerSpaceSG, 70A Bussorah Street, Singapore 199483.

UPDATE: CC Singapore Day, 11 Nov, 2011 presenters (as posted at the Facebook event page):
- DJ Reiki will share some of her CC-licensed works.
- Justin Koh (got arm-twisted) to share about his CC musical endeavors on soundcloud. Justin contributed audio and videow for CC SG Fest.
- Tech65.org, Chinmay Pendharkar, will share about their CC podcasts.
- A screening of a made-in-SG CC-licensed film. I’ll keep mum on what this is about. If you grew up in 80s Singapore and have an inkling of the music scene, I think you’ll like this one. This 20min documentary brought a tear to my eye at the end. [Post-event: Video unveiled]
- Sponsored goodies from Lunarin. Their lead singer couldn’t make it but very kindly donated their band merchandise in support of CC Singapore Day.
- Thanks to HackerSpaceSG for being the venue host.

Great idea Ivan! Will see if I can participate in some way or other.
Thanks, Walter. You can submit a photo, a blog post, a scribbling… If you own the copyright, you can choose to contribute. Cheers!

Creative commons your work to share and care for the world’s benefit
Awesome stuff, Loo Kang. I heard EducampSG is coming up. You should speak about your CC work there.
Pity that I can’t make the Nov 11 meetup. I am travelling. Have fun.
Next year (we hope to have another one)! Thanks, Harish.
