Dear Banff New Media Institute Alumnus

Our apologies if you've received this more than once, but we want to be 
sure we found you.

BNMI is having its 10th anniversary this year! Not only that, but it's 
the end of an era here on Tunnel Mountain -- our fearless leader Sara 
Diamond is leaving Banff to take up a new post in Toronto.*

Given these two momentus occasions we are giving you another chance to 
PLEASE send us your memories of times at BNMI by taking 10 minutes 
right now to fill in our playful online survey.
http://www.collaborativenet.banffcentre.ca/BNMISurvey/index.php
The results will help us as we continue to prepare our anniversary 
activities (we're putting up a show, publishing a book, hosting reunion 
summits, publishing an online comprehensive archive of 10 years of 
events, and releasing a complete DVD archive of HorizonZero) and as we 
determine how to move forward.

With your answers (which we have tried to make easy for you by giving 
you multiple choices) we are generating visualizations of both the 
social networks and the ideas networks which have emerged from BNMI. 
These visualizations will appear in the publication as well as at 
Banff. We want to know who you met and what resulted.

Please take 10 minutes and fill in the online survey. Right now. Tell 
us what you have loved and learned or lamented about BNMI. Tell us just 
how immersed you were in Sara Diamond's hot tub.
http://www.collaborativenet.banffcentre.ca/BNMISurvey/index.php

Complete it as many times as feels relevant, or correlates to the 
number of times you've hiked Tunnel Mountain at 8am, but do so BEFORE 
APRIL 25.

We're sorry if you've filled this in earlier this year, but we are 
sending it out again because Sara's departure has put a different spin 
on things. We think you might want another (last) chance to comment on 
how BNMI (as you've known and loved it in the last 10 years) has 
affected your life, professionally and personally.

Come on, it'll be fun.

We would also love it if you would include in the comments section of 
the survey any anecdotes, photos, or memories of your participation in 
BNMI events that you would be happy for us to include in the 
archive/book. (Offers of help are welcome too).

Thanks!

With love and gratitude from the BNMI 
anniversary/archive/visualisation/curatorial/editorial team
(aka Sarah Cook, Susan Kennard, Sara Diamond, Maria Lantin, Cindy 
Schatkoski, etc.)

Fill the survey in right now!
