ArtTAKE ACTION: Support Transportation Sustainability Champion - Shop #1 Ohio City Cycles for holidaysSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Mon, 11/22/2004 - 02:59.
At the E4S awards party, transportation sustainability champion Jim Sheehan stressed that Ohio City Cycles has lots of great gift for the holidays - from recycled bikes to cool eco-cycle art objects and other great stuff so after you shop local and organic at Champion Basketeria, at the West Side Market, swing by Ohio City Cycles for all your other holiday shopping... if you see a solar and biofuel powered van parked out front, that's probably the other transportation champion, Matthew Harris - great people!

Cleveland Institute of Art - One of NEO's Greatest Forces in Economic DevelopmentSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Sat, 11/13/2004 - 13:30.
Art and creative industies represent $ billions in economic activity in Northeast Ohio, and the CIA is the greatest fuel we have for that wealth engine. Not only does the CIA provide the region with great creators - fine, design, graphic and craft artists and entrepreneurs - but CIA brings to town monumental art and events that generate cash for our economy. Most important, CIA is developing programs that raise awareness of social issues essential to improving the quality of life and prosperity of all our residents. Read and contribute insight gained from experiencing CIA enlightenment here. ( categories: )
Those who are not involved in local economic development are the Quiet CrisisSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 11/11/2004 - 21:21.
People who complain there aren't leaders in Northeast Ohio fighting each day to improve our economy and quality of life are themselves ignorant and to blame for the problems in this community. Innumerable exceptional, dedicated, capable and effective leaders fight day in and out to improve everyone's lives here, every day - it is the people who do not participate actively in this process who are our region's "quiet crisis"?. Each day we have opportunities to be solutions - visit the REALNEO calendar frequently to get up to speed and learn where, when and how to make differences in the future of this community, participate in forums on-line, find and share insight with our community leaders, and take personal responsibility, now. 11.09.04 NOTES: Tuesday@REI Forging our future with the metal of creative industriesSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 11/10/2004 - 23:39.
For the past several years, one of the hottest topics in NEO economic development circles has been the value and future potential of our "creative class" - Cleveland State recently estimated Playhouse Square's contribution to the economy at $43 million per year, and CPAC finds just arts and culture creates $1.3 billion a year in econopmic activity in Cuyahoga County alone - but creative class guru Richard Florida only ranks our creative class at 30th out of the 49 largest regions in America, and all local economic development thinkers think we have lots more value to capture. REI Director Ed Morrison projects that "Creative" industries are in fact our next "Steel", and he and other creative leaders here are doing lots about forging more value in this sector of the new economy, including hosting a session at REI November 9 about harnessing more of its horsepower. Here are my notes from the session: Building Creative Industries in NEOSubmitted by Ed Morrison on Tue, 11/09/2004 - 07:00.
Building a creative industry base in Northeast Ohio requires us to think in new ways. We're lucky, in that a number of other regions -- mostly in the U.K, Australia, and New Zealand -- have been moving in this direction.

11/06/04 - 10:30-11:30 AM Presentation by Irene Sunwoo, Architectural Association, London We were fortunate to have join us, from London, England, architecture historian Irene Sunwoo, discussing an innovative concept, being a house as an art object desired by collectors and brokered as a collectible - in this case she profiled the controversial Farnsworth House of Mies Van der Rohe, 1946 - 1951, which was sold in 2003 as lot 800 in an auction at Sotheby's, for $7.5 million. The winning bidder was the Landmarks Preservation Council of Illinois, which will now operate the house, hailed as an architectural masterwork.

NEO "may show" "Cleveland School" to beat Artsopolis (and Silicon Valley), for our creative classSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 11/04/2004 - 02:06.
Let's beat Artsopolis (and Silicon Valley) and save NEO artists money. The following article plugs an arts portal in Silicon Valley that they claim is getting the attention of lots of other arts organizations around the country. I do use Artsopolis when in SF and the protal is good, but it is no better than we can do here - and we need this capability to promote one of our greatest regional assets... the arts!!!
Interesting self publishing site and service from founder of RedhatSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 11/04/2004 - 01:46.
I received an email today from area economic development leader Kevin Cronin that should be of interest of content creators interested to commercialize books, music and images. Nice service - don't know if it is cost competitive... and wonder, can't folks in publishing here compete with this, as self-publishing will continue to be a growing business (some folks will always want dead trees to read ;-)

Regional leadership has shown conceptual support to figure out how Northeast Ohio artists may use optimal information technology to enhance their abilities to survive and thrive - live doing what they love. for this desire, and money is being invested to help artists grow an industry around their activities, but the results are not yet optimal.
