Category: Critical Mass News

The Cinematheque is screening some great SF films next week at The Mercury Cinema:

Ghost Ship (1943) at 7pm Monday night the 7th of December

King Kong (1933) at 7pm Thursday night the 10th of December

Harakiri (1962) on Mon 14th december

Just so you know!

 

The SA Writers Centre has decided groups can’t book the venue for regular events, which means we need to look for a new venue for Critical Mass in 2016. While we have met in people’s homes before, I suspect a library or church hall may be a more convivial meeting place.

Anyone interested in helping search for a new venue? We won’t need one until February in the New Year.

December is the month in which we replace the guest speaker with a dinner outing. So, if you are free at 7:30 on Wednesday Dec 2nd, join us at Cafe Brunelli’s from7:30 onwards. Around 8pm we shall either stay there to order food, or head out elsewhere on Rundle St for food.

Hope to see a few of you there!

 

As mentioned in recnt meetings, we are moving off Meetup to a new system:
(i) A monthly newsletter generated by mailChimp;
(ii) A section on the adelaidefanreview.com website for critical mass news and notes: https://adelaidefanreview.com/category/critical-mass/
(iii) Events listed in The Shape of Things to Come google calendar (see RHS column of website for the next ten items)

Basically, the functionality of meetup will be handled by the google calendar and the section of the website.

As part of setting up the new website, I’ve added the audio recording of the recent Critical Mass (“A Sound of Lafferty”) to the website.

For good measure, I’ve also added what I have of the Quantum Thief recording.

Just as we have a regular segment as part of critical Mass for news and quick reviews, we’d like to add snippets and thots to the website.

If you’re interested in being a semi-regular contributor, please email me and I’ll add you as a user of the website, and arrange a short training session to point out some features of the site (including the possibility of emailing in your contributions!)
