What do you think, Howard?

We need some sponsors of course...

Yes! The mushroom awards!
The prizes would be gold-plated mushrooms!
(Is someone using that already?)
For excellence in experimental electro-acoustic and electronic music.
We could have a big party and generate some publicity.

Agreed! Mushroms ae cool!

Well..

like best CD in this and that category, live performance, innovative whatever use of whatever, .... a long list... yearly awards..

and get some sponsors.. hmm.. that would be deductible eh?

Some prizes can be like.. mushroom branded modular synth moduls??

Seriously, I think awards is a good idea..

The Cobalt Mushroom Awards, The CMA's. We just need to get a couple of high profile same-sex electronic musicians to kiss on stage. What do ya say, Elektro? I'm up to it of you are? Twisted Evil

I like the idea, but do you think we have enough here to have one yet?

Dunno..but we might take this into the shed and do some pottering... and come back out with a sensible plan?

It can be used for publicity.. and it can be a decent show.

Awards shouldn't be limited to people that are here.
But the panel of judges could be selected from members, with maybe a few other prestigious names if it helps draw some attention.

Ahh... right... of course the awards should not be imited to the people here. That would be counterproductive.

And what a story that is.

Perhaps, as an award, it can start off a bit more low-key, and thus more accessible for everyone, than something as elaborate as a real deal awards ceremony, and perhaps even more frequent than an annual thing. Depends on how much leverage one wants to take advantage of in order to promote the idea. One must, of course, always be conscious of maintaining the prestige of the award, if this is to be seriously pursued.
