Info:Artengine presents...

The Artengine Electronics Amnesty and Cyber-Pancake Flip-Out Fundraiser.

On April 8th 2006 Artengine will be hosting a Fundraising event at ClubSAW to raise money for the Artengine’s future projects. In the weeks leading up to the event our doors are open to collect any unwanted electrical goods. These items will then be available to the general public via silent auction at the event. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this unique spring cleaning opportunity and a chance to find some new electrical treasures. For Each item donated you will receive one “Artengine buck”, redeemable at the event. We will ensure that any unsold items that we cannot put to good use in the Artengine lab will be properly recycled. We will be accepting items at the event as well.

We also welcome your collections of used batteries at the lab and at the event. We will be making a trip to a recycling depot after the event so you can safely dispose of your old batteries and save on gas too.

We are now accepting items every Tuesday from 9 to 4. We are located at 233 Argyle between Bank and O’Connor. (No old computer monitors pretty please) Please contact Christie Watson at Artengine to arrange for an alternated drop off time if need be. Our number is 230-5490.

The party will feature over a dozen local and international artists including,

* Wild Action Info, a new multimedia performance by New York’s Cary Peppermint, [ www.restlessculture.net ]

* From Montreal comes a musical blend of turntableism and homespun electronics by Blake Hargreaves.

* Local electronic music label SULPONT will be on hand with merchandise and we will hear from Olivier Fairfield and Paris Hilton. [ www.sulpont.ca ]

* Video artist Ryan Stec will team up with photographer Aaron Mckenzie Frazer to bring you live video mixing.

* Fresh new media work by up and comers Ross Birdwise, Darsha Hewitt, Andrew O’Malley, Jason Derouin and Stephanie Brodeur to see and take part in.

* Underscoring the whole evening with his "off the grid" sound system will be Ottawa’s own DJ Michael Caffrey.

* To top off the evening there will be a cash bar and we will be serving hot pancakes fresh from the pan to take care of those midnight munchies.

So come along, bid on some electronics, bring something electrical to donate, drop off your used batteries for proper recycling, have a pancake, have a party and help out Artengine.

Tickets are $10 and are available online at [ www.artenine.ca ]
