What: Flickr Open Mic Night
Where: San Francisco Apple Store, Stockton Street
When: November 4th, 5 – 7pm (4pm if you’d like to participate)

We’re going to give 15 members of the Flickr community an opportunity to share their work. How will this work?

I’ll be camping out from 4pm on (most likely upstairs near the Genius Bar). Come find me and if available, I’ll hand you a number. In exchange, you’ll hand me some sort of media item* with a selection of your photos.** We’ll massage the content into a presentation that we’ll display beginning at 5pm. You’ll have up to 5 minutes to show your work and talk about what inspires, you (or not).

Small prints stuff: One number per person. You must show up in person to claim a number. Those who present their work will be asked stay within their allotted time. George will play time keeper and we’ll sound some sort of device to let you know when you’re times up. Politely at first, but all bets are off after that (we may arm Cal with the marshmallow shooter). Please keep in mind that this is a public event and our Community Guidelines will apply.

We’ll likely decamp afterwards to a local watering hole for a frosty beverage (or two), location to be announced at the event.

* CD, Compact Flash, SD, Memory Stick Duo, thumb drive, etc. — don’t worry, we’ll give it back. If you have any questions regarding media, please free to drop me a FlickrMail.
** Roughly 20 – 30. With a 5 second delay that’s a couple of minutes of photos.
