hello future kiwi friends!
i will be arriving in Christchurch this Saturday, 8 July, as a guest of the science museum, for whom i'm consulting on a tech-fashion event. they just sent me my schedule and i've found out i'm completely unscheduled the first 3 days-- so Sat thru Mon is free time with no chance to really meet people to enjoy that time with first (i rather hate traveling alone). i don't really know anyone there other than the folks at the museum who set up my visit.
i would like to get out into the countryside some, and to see some art or attend events or dinner parties.
I would love to meet artists, scientists, performers, photographers, musicians, techno geeks, futurists, permaculturists, philosophers, or really any type of interesting creative intellect. if you are in Christchursch, or have friends there you think i should meet, please contact me. suggestions for places to visit and hang out where i might meet such people are also appreciated.
looking so forward to this visit! wish it were perhaps a little better planned but i know it will all fall into place. always does.....

Re: Christchurch visitor seeking burners, geeks & artists
Fri, July 7, 2006 - 6:15 AMI was just in Christchurch for a few days last week myself, and I can highly recommend The Wunderbar in Lyttelton for evening entertainment, The Honeypot Cafe for yummy food, and The Copenhagen Bakery for AMAZING pies. Also make sure you check out the Arts Centre, there is a ton of stuff there for anyone artistically inclined, and great for buying gifts. Also, especially if it's cold [and it probably will be] The Botanic Gardens Conservatory is gorgeous and tropical :) The Burners I am aware of who live there are travelling atm, but if you post on Kiwiburn you may get a hoy and more recommendations!
