Alongside the main Shift-Time Festival we're running a project to get Shrewsbury and the surrounding area blogging. We want people to use the festival to experiment with all sorts of "social media" services be they weblogs, photo and video sharing sites like Flickr and YouTube or Twitter. The end result, we hope, is to give Shrewsbury the tools to talk to itself about things that matter, whatever they may be.

This blog will act as a hub, collecting and linking to online activity that is either relevant to the festival or Shrewsbury in general, and posting things to to help and inspire you to blog about Shift-Time.

So get involved by setting up a blog or sharing your photos and videos online and let us know what you're up to so we can mention it on the blog.

The wonder of woolies

by jonking

I got an email from one of our artists today.

Feng-Ru Lee is appearing at Shift Time as her alter-ego Milee The Sheep.

Now she’s had an idea that it might be a good idea to have a real sheep alongside. So the search is on for a crowd-friendly ovine.

Never a dull moment.

    That is going to be one very confused sheep!

    Thanks to my inability to keep quiet at the blogging meet last night, I did mention to Jon that we keep Jacob sheep and several have been shown. Following an email from Feng-Ru hopefully we will be able to sort things for her (subject to DEFRA etc). I will post a picture or two of the lucky participant on the gekkko blog. Naturally she will have another sheep for company and a shepherd in attendance.

    Well Steve for one certainly found Feng-Ru and the Jacobs to be photogenic. Look forward to seeing everyone’s images on Flickr…
