ello,

a couple of friends are organizing a workshop at the Venice Biennale on the future of architectural education - something we in Delft are pretty much on top of right now due to some fire or something.

Anyway, anybody attending the Biennale, and especially on Sunday September 14th, is invited to participate in this workshop - free lectures by Wolf Prix, Ole Bouman, Michiel Riedijk and Andrew Bullen included!

love, Marten

Hey Erhan, Im just trying to find out some information about buses going from Larnaca and Paphos to Nicosia, its kind of hard. Do you know of any websites I can find prices and timetables, because the little information i can get it looks quite tricky. Thanks! Hope you are nursing the sun back to health for us...

call out to Josip Broz Tito,

It is somewhat red faced that I am writing to say that after unpacking my bag, deep in the depths of it I have found your hat from the Yugoslavia reformation national evening.

I will endeavour to bring it to Cyprus with me where you can reclaim ownership.

Big love C

I want to thank all the Irish boys and girls (hard working, good looking people) for makeing EASA008 a great one! I also want to send a special thanx to Hugo for inventing Ireland & organizing EASA all by himself & for stopping the rain at least for the last days. I also want to thank my mom and dad for allowing me to go to Ireland, although it is very very far away! THANK U ALL AND HOPE TO C U AGAIN!

There are little red rings around my calfs. As I enter my second day under my duvet in pjamas eating baked beans I just want to thank you guys again. The last few days of tidy up were great stuff and made me realise a little bit more how much the organisers did for us and the insane effort that went into making EASA08. Patterson I miss you (and the rest of yis).

hey hey..... it just started to rain....and the serbian crew started to laugh.... some of the members of our team are complaining that they left their hearts in ireland so to those who are keeping them... make sure to bring them to italy next year. to the irish guys.... u were fabulous and fantastic.... we love u and those two weeks were unforgetable. to all other people thanks for staying showing that easa spirit is stronger than weather stronger then everything..... i acctually miss the rain and miss u all sooooo much. many many kisses from serbia.

Dear EASA people,

I want to thank all EASA008 organizers for their great performance. Despite all the difficulties they have managed everything so well. We wished helping more but its never easy to coop with others excluding the organization team... Anyhow one another EASA experience came to an end sucessfully. We are hoping to catch same quality for our INCM008 organization in Cyprus. However I want to let you know from now that we need NC's help for moderation and minute writing. Who would be volunteer for these two jobs?

Moderation would be assigned for a day only not to make it tiring, so we need at least 5 people for that and 5 people for minute writing. I would prefer to propose good english speakers with good knowledge of EASA and its organizational experience.

Those countries who are willing to beat for EASA 2010, please let us know in advance that we can re-arrange our program(Even its a possibility! we want to be prepared for most crowded case).Latest end of SEPTEMBER! This is an important point since we are not going to spend all our time in same meeting room. Different spaces will be arranged for different events so we have to know what you need in advance. To wrap it up, if you dont want any surprises or difficulties in abnormal Cyprus, let us know soon...

One another issue is to collect names of participants for the INCM008 just because we will have to inform United Nations in advance about the event because we will use their meeting rooms.

Final issue is about the countries which are willing to come to cyprus and needs visa. We want to send their invitations as soon as possible so, we have to first gather their names to do that. Please let us know until 10th of SEPTEMBER!

for your contacts incm008@gmail.com web page coming soon with full of information...

Thank you

Erhan

PS.I want to clear some points about EASA2010 evaluation from now. Those countries who are willing to beat, they would get extra places depending on their teams. Except last EASA008 and EASA009 organizers would also have chance to bring their teams. But only NC's are going to be counted for debates to sustain consensus.
