    <short-description>The time was the mid-1960s. The place was the Haight-Ashbury district in San Francisco. The vibe was radical, revolutionary, psychedelic&#226;&#8364;&#8221;a dizzying countercultural movement of cosmic energies.</short-description>

    <full-description>On Saturday, April 25th, the art world will intersect with the real estate world for a little joie de vivre. If Cannes and Art Basel had a Brooklyn outpost it would be the site of the very first Art Walk @ Hello Living (4.25.09 - 5.22.09). 

For more information, please visit www.beastsocial.wordpress.com

If walking around in some luxury condos while looking at beautiful arts and socializing with smart people doesn't spark your interest, how about 4 hours of FREE dessert and wine tasting? Our friends at Brooklyn Oenology and Cafe Patisserie Lafayette offered some of their best selections to treat your appetite. What? You are trying to stay away from alcohol and sugar? Not a problem! We've got tons of fresh fruit baskets and SuNo Water lying around to keep you healthy and refreshed.

At this point, I don't see why you are still not clicking the "I'm in" button? Maybe A RAFFLE will get you out of bed? How about some FABULOUS PRIZES?

- A gift card to Picholine ($50 value)
- A Social Club Wine Basket by Brooklyn Oenology ($75 value)
- A gift certificate to Enve Beauty Lounge ($100 value)
- A gift card AND a satchel full of goodies from Sephora ($125 value)
- A home accessory gift set by BoConcept ($150 value)

(Home buyers who are already pre-approved for a mortgage, the developers of Hello Living are offering $1000 off closing cost to those who make an offer on the same day.)

Pretty sweet Art Walk, don't you think? It's not over yet. Rumor has it that there is going to be an AFTER PARTY hosted by Triumph Property Group @ 957 Pacific Street with OPEN BAR and LIVE JAZZ. So I would get there early and get on the list!

Last but not least, there is going to be a PING PONG TOURNAMENT held at the after party (ever heard of that?) The winners, of course, get A PRIZE! (I've already said too much, let's keep this one a secret.)

Guest and media check in @ 802 Dean Street 2PM - 5PM
Raffle drawing starts at 6PM.
After Party 6:30PM - 10PM (21+, please bring a photo ID!)</full-description>

Creativity is present in all we do. The 7th Creativity and Cognition Conference (CC09) embraces the broad theme of Everyday Creativity. This year the conference will be held at the Berkeley Art Museum (CA, USA), and asks: How do we enable everyone to enjoy their creative potential? How do our creative activities differ? What do they have in common? What languages can we use to talk to each other? How do shared languages support collective action? How can we incubate innovation? How do we enrich the creative experience? What encourages participation in everyday creativity?

We welcome submissions from academics and practitioners, makers and scientists, artists and theoreticians. This year's broad theme of Everyday Creativity reflects the new forms of creativity emerging in everyday life, and includes topics of:

- Collective creativity and creative communities
- Shared languages and Participatory creativity
- Incubating creativity and supporting Innovation
- DIY and folk creativity
- Democratising creativity
- New materials for creativity
- Enriching the collaborative experience

It's two days of seemingly random but totally focused energy, ideas, inspiration, revelation and absolute awesomeness delivered by an eclectic roster of artists, designers, attorneys, educators, activists, innovators, architects, scientists, musicians, engineers, authors, filmmakers, physicians, entrepreneurs and students. 

Why attend?

"Physicists use the word 'entropy' to mean 'increasing disorder.' One of the two anti-entropic processes is a green planet&#8230; photosynthesis. The other anti-entropic process is what this conference is all about&#8230; human intelligence."
