Hello everyone! I have organized an art show at Echo Curio in July, and I wanted to encourage anybody who may be interested to participate. The show is about sharing your vision of a utopian city. You are free to decide how you want to do it. Being cyclists, I assume you may have some interest in urban design/planning as related to transportation. You can find more information about the show on the website:

hehe. It actually would look like we went back in time quite a bit, but with more bikes. Less industry, and more agriculture. Art and Science would be the focus and communities would work with each other. Lot's of public shared space. Bring back the Red Car. Automobiles would be nearly nil except for service vehicles. LA River would be used more as green parks and kayaking access. Good luck with your show!

yeah let's hear it
i like your ideas borfo, you should consider submitting something to the show even if you don't have super awesome art skills... that's not very important
i've been spending a lot of time with school, volunteering, this show, gardening, socializing... and so on... not so much time spent on this forum or on rides, but from glancing around the different threads... it looks the same as last time i was here. haha
