What

A collaboratively-developed-and-organized (BarCamp-style) Passover Seder!

 

What's a Passover Seder, and why a camp?

 

Tradition translated into barcamp terminology: We relive the enslavement of non-free MS software and the subsequent Exodus of the barcampers from proprietary environments (led by a prophet who shall not be named). Think of it as a fun ritual framework for celebrating freedom, in all the senses of the world, easily adaptable to whatever modern afflictions are upon us. My cohousing community traditionally does an irreverent multi-denominational seder, last year using a "chocolate milk haggadah", substituting chocolate milk for the traditional wine or grape juice. The BarCamp format seems ideal for bringing people together in self-organizing fashion to reinvent this tradition to reflect the concerns of our generation (and to help us see how much the same they really are, thousands of years back).

 

When

Wednesday, April 4, 2007, 7-10 PM (third night of Passover) NOTE CHANGED START TIME - 7 SHARP

Where

The Hillside Club, Berkeley. Free wifi, projector, sound system. Seating for 100 or so. Wheelchair accessible. Fireplace. Big space. Near Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto. (if other locations are added, we'll branch off BarSederBerkeley into its own page)

 

Organizers:

 

  • Raines Cohen
  • Betsy Morris
  • John Feld and Irma (Hillside Club managers)

 

Participants:

 

  • Your name here! (what you're bringing food-wise here)
  • J.D. Falk (food TBD) -- if it's actually happening (is it?) Yes, it is!
  • Jason and Ann Peace (food TBD) -- asking J.D. if it's happening. Yep, sez Raines
  • Beniamino Pagliaro (virtually)
  • Wattie Taylor

To-do/wanted:

 

  • Venue
  • wifi
  • projector
  • Chaggadah selection and/or development
    • I developed my own a few years ago, based largely on the Santa Cruz Haggadah. Y'all are welcome to use it whether I attend or not, though it probably needs some editing first. I'd be very happy to collaborate with somebody on editing it. -- J.D. Thanks JD! Let's go with it. "-- R"

  • Logo

(I can't attend, but if this hasn't been done, I'd be happy to whip one together - DanLurie)
