More from Eric @ CC:
There are two CC Salon events happening this week. One in San Francisco — which will double as the launch party for Creative Commons’ annual fundraising campaign — and one in New York.
CC Salon, San Francisco will take place on Wednesday, October 11, from 6-9pm at Shine (1337 Mission Street, between 9th and 10th Streets). It will feature presentations by David Pescovitz (MAKE, Boing Boing, Institute for the Future), Micki Krimmel (Revver), and Ryan Junell (Webzine, Sagan, SLOMO Video), as well as music by Evolution Control Committee. This event marks the beginning of Creative Commons’ annual fundraising campaign, so don’t hesitate to bring your checkbook (or PayPal login info — we’ll have laptops on hand) to show your support for the work we do. This is your chance to donate a few bucks and be the first person on your block to get the brand new CC t-shirt design.
CC Salon, New York will take place on Friday, October 13, from 8-10pm at Nublu (162 Ave. C, between 4th and 5th Streets). It will feature presentations by Marisa Olson (Rhizome.org) and Paul Slocum (Tree Wave).
About CC Salon: CC Salon is a series of free events focused on conversation, presentations, and performances from people or groups who are developing projects that relate to open content and/or software. Please invite your friends, colleagues, and anyone you know who might be interested in drinks and discussion. There are now CC Salons happening in San Francisco, Toronto, Berlin, Beijing, Warsaw, Seoul, Johannesburg, and New York.
Don’t you know – will CC Salon be open in another countries? Or only USA ?
Maybe I’m just missing it, but do either of the artists in the New York Salon actually release anything under CC? Both seem to be about mashups, but neither seems to redistribute their own mashups under terms that would allow others to re-mashup, as far as I can tell. I hope I’m wrong, of course- if someone would point out their stuff to me, that would be great. (Sounds just like the NYC CC concert that way, actually.)

How about one in Atlanta?!?!?!?
