Re: [Origami] Too many online activities? Should I wait a bit for mine?
Thus spake "Origami on behalf of Gerardo @neorigami.com" on 4/23/20, 12:10 PM: Now, I was thinking... there are a lot of origami activities online these days. Some through Zoom, but some others through Facebook Live and Instagram Live. I wonder if it'll be the same–say–in June or if there won't be that much offer then as there currently is. I scheduled the conference/workshop within two weeks. So, what do you think? Should I postpone it to the first Saturday of June, for example, just in case there won't be as many online origami offers as there are now, or should I just take the opportunity and do it on May 9 just like I had originally planned? I would bet that as shutdowns continue worldwide, the demand for online events will continue, if not actually grow (especially as more people get comfortable with the format), and so online events will continue, if not expand, well into June (and probably beyond). Also, a little bird tells me there’s something pretty interesting brewing for late June, which we should hear about in the next few days. Robert
[Origami] Too many online activities? Should I wait a bit for mine?
I had asked yesterday if one of you had a paid Zoom subscription in order to help me offer my conference/workshop "Creating through the Frankensteinian Method in Origami". Thanks to the help of Community Origami Groups COG from OrigamiUSA, everything is ready to go : ) Now, I was thinking... there are a lot of origami activities online these days. Some through Zoom, but some others through Facebook Live and Instagram Live. I wonder if it'll be the same–say–in June or if there won't be that much offer then as there currently is. I scheduled the conference/workshop within two weeks. So, what do you think? Should I postpone it to the first Saturday of June, for example, just in case there won't be as many online origami offers as there are now, or should I just take the opportunity and do it on May 9 just like I had originally planned? I really appreciate your help with this decision. I just want to offer everyone something you can enjoy and learn from, instead of feeling overwhelmed by having one more offer from so many.
