Animation is overtaking the streets of downtown Montreal’s entertainment district, the Quartier des Spectacles, and various cities in Scotland in honor of Norman McLaren's centennial.

Last month I blogged about Kid Koala’s anti-social social event, Music to Draw To, in Montreal. Now he’s bringing the quiet tunes to New York, L.A., and Toronto for the Toronto Comic Arts Festival. Awesome.

If I was in Montreal I’d go to this.
Kid Koala has dedicated three Mondays in March (kicking off tonight) to quiet music he has found in his travels, so people can get creative. Show up for five hours of quiet-time records with your sketchbook, knitting, notebook, or any other creative project. Says Kid Koala:
I was working on the Space Cadet book and realized at 8 hours a page I would have to log another 800 hours of alone time before this book would see the light of day. It would be great if there was a place I could go be social and anti-social at the same time. Somewhere I could look up from my desk and see something other than the wall.
As the site says, “Quiet people are invited. Bring something to work on. No dancing.” What a great idea. I hope it’s a huge success and we begin to see more events like this: creative anti-social socials.

(Thanks, Tamu!)
i knew this would spread!! & no dancing!
NO!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING.
I am planning on attending The TCAF and driving up from NYC for the first time.
I might attend both NY and Toronto!!!
This would be a great chance to meet local artists and relax after the event.
Cheers.

I thought this was a brilliant idea from the get-go. I really hope he does more touring with this concept.
This is an amazing idea! Music + Drawing + knowing people outside Internet.
We should try to do something like this all over the world.
As always, great post!
Music with art. Genius! I’m there!
