Re: [Frameworks] Experimental Film Festivals

Very glad that you find expcinema.com useful, Eric :-).

It's funny that you talk about the possibility of having "user accounts
that let festival and venue organizers keep their information up to date",
because that's precisely one of the website's features. It was created
with the idea of a community in mind. There are some regular contributors
from festivals, though not as many as I would like to have!

Best,
Marcos

Sounds great – we’re in winter now down here and there are bits of aeroplane

scot!
you are stepping down?
a real pity to hear that, specially as I was planning to come to images at some 
point and see your work...
I am sure you will find a great replacement anyway but it would have been good 
to know that I came while you were doing it.
In any case it was wonderful to see you again and I hope we set again soon. If 
you are planning to come over to Europe during this summer do let me know! 
summme!!
swimming!! Greece is still a massive mess but the sun shines still and the 
sea is still blue and beautiful.
keep in touch my friend!

I am not sure but I think that when I replied to Scott Miller Berry's email I 
totally forgot that I was not writing to him but to the entire frameworks list. 
Sorry about that...
