Re: [AGA-mcm] Houston...we have a problem.



Is this a YES? Anyone else want to speak up before I tell him to go ahead and prepare a PowerPoint to give the first 15-25 minutes before the discussion?

This sounds cool, but I would impress on Oliver that these are workshops, not formal presentations, so it's actually OK to spend a few minutes talking about how one "just arranges" the rocks in a particular matter, because much of the workshop is focused on dialog (right?). Also, it's only 45 minutes each session.

I think we'll have enough projectors, between the one GWAPA has, Karen's, and Ray Lucas ($10/day?).

Reply from Oliver

Hy Sean,

that ?s bad news I hope that Wilma Duncan and Dorothy Rimes are be in good health soon. Best wishes from me.

I don?t know if I?am the right men for a ?Iwagumi? workshop. Because my stoneworks I only make by my instinct, not by special rules. This is not easy to describe it to the participants.

But maybe...no I?am sure we find a theme who I can help you. Do you wish more a practical workshop, or is also a lecture possible ?

I can give a lecture, for example, about my Training Day?s in Japan by the ADA company from Mr.Amano this year. But for this I need a possibility to make a Powerpoint-Presentation to show some pictures from CD....I think this is will be very interesting for someone who want take a look behind the scenes from Takashi Amano.

If you want a practical workshop, I can try to set up a example tank...with stone?s or something. And can talk about my maintenance experience to take care a planted aquarium.

Please let me know your wishes.

Best regards,

Oliver

Luis's talk focused more on the plantless foreground, not so much on
Iwagumi. Iwagumi itself has a set of 'rules' that are followed.
In anycase, I think Sean has asked Oliver already. If that doesn't work out
we'll look at the other options.

Good suggestions. AHS could be worth doing again.  I think
we'd have to comp Kim something -- not saying that's bad,
just to be taken into consideration. Is he doing his little
asembly demo anyway?

A Focus Group focusing on aquascaping would be good, in
keeping with the theme of the convention. But wasn't
iwagumi part of Luis's presentation last year -- sort of
tieing in with Roger's Rocks talk?

What about David Lass doing something about melding the
tank aquascape into the surroundings or vice versa? I've
only seen pics and I'm not sure how to describe it.
