Help spend free cash to make your own art http://www.MUSTart.org please RT #tuttle #Media140

1.
Help us spend a secret large amount of funds (and donate books/materials/funds if you can) in the most creative/efficient way to enhance your local community while recycling unwanted items. Think of an idea, create a prototype if you can and post suggestions on http://www.MUStart.org. Also send a free book/artwork to a friend from the same site or download free artworks.

2. (want to meet other artists and come to a live living artwork in a multistory towerblock)
We have just delivered hundreds of unused books at the http://www.marketestateproject.com/ in North London and would like to work with you to turn the FREE books (or other recycled material that you can find) into free art that can then be either given away or installed in your local community.

Come down to the http://www.marketestateproject.com any day over the next two weeks and find the books in the Estate office, make some art, photograph/film it and link to it from http://www.MUSTart.org. (this can be anything from writing a quote in the book and giving it away to something you have thought of)

3.
Do you have any unwanted materials/equipment that you can donate (and use yourself) to build free art to give away with MUSTart.org?
e.g. Books, materials, space, buildings...

WE have just cleared up from the FREE ART GIVEAWAY where anyone could draw on Books at the British Library Mingle event.

MUSTart.org are teaming up with a National Development organisation to create Trust Libraries across the UK. We are now looking to partner with other great organisations so we can enhance their great work too.

1. Would you like a FREE Trust library installed in your community? We are looking for new locations to install FREE Trust Libraries so contact us on here by commenting below if you are interested or tweeting http://www.twitter.com/whymandesign . These can range from a bookshelf full of popular fiction books to a fully interactive space with facilitators that engage and empower passers by to take free books, draw on them and then give them away.

2. Do you know of an unused/empty space in a public building or office foyet that we could install the trust library in? The space can range from an empty shop to a car park bay or a table in a Library Foyet. If so plot the location on the map and message us directly.

3. Do you have unused materials such as books/pens/paper... that we could use to create community art work that improves communities while increasing community cohesion?

5. We have had a few requests to put on this activity and customized versions at private events and festivals. If this is of interest contact us directly on twitter @whymandesign.

Mustart.org came about after talking about how anyone and everyone can solve any / every problem by going about solving it in the right way.

One great way to solve problems is to ask the person asking the question
(problem finder) if they know of the answer or if they can look into
solving it so they become the problem solver too:)

e.g.
1.
How can enterprise and innovation be improved and created
institutionally? http://www.Traidmark.org is one way to create
institutional innovation.

2.
How can anyone set up their own self sustaining innovation space?
http://www.BARcampBAR.org and http://www.FREEtraid.org both have
examples of how this can be done.

How else can everyone be A. Empowered to create innovative solutions so
social problems and B. Self sustain themselves by earning enough to live
and learn?

No No No Yes. Saying Yes / No Happiness and 8 hours!
1.
What is the unmeasurable negative effect of people saying no or being negative on you me and society? Is it worse to ignore someone than say no to them? Probably...

Here is a list of obvious ways to handle any situation from bad to good...

BAD - Insult, Ignore, Say No, Suggest something, Encourage, Congratulate, Say Yes, Recommend - GOOD

So it takes less effort to say to someone that they are doing well and makes you feel good too.
It appears to be all linked to the EGO that makes some people confused and think that they are better than others so don't want to care or help them which leads to the BAD reactions to any/every enquiry. As these people are negative to other people they get negative responses too leading to a cycle of negativity which makes the egotistical person feel worse and worse. The person who has control of their EGO and acts selflessly helping others gets rewarded many times over as others are nice back to them creating a cycle of GOOD where everyone wins. Often stress creates the negative cycle but this can be combated by looking at others who have 'less' making you feel humble and by laughing at ourselves as in the grand scheme of things nothing we do (nor our lives) appear to matter.

2.
This leads on to how you live your life. To enjoy it or to reach some goal that your parents/society has imposed on you? The TED talk below makes me step back and think about what is important and how money and status are worth less than self belief and pride...
Do not look for happiness but create it with what you have got.


http://www.ted.com/talks/dan_gilbert_asks_why_are_we_happy.html

When people have no choice they change their preferences to make them more happy about what they have. When they have choice they are always comparing what they have to others so are less happy as they compare with the average.

On average nothing is average!

3.
Which leads to what you do with 8 hours of your life! well 3 sets of 8 hours.


8 hours working...

If one person can do a job better than someone else should they take ove the job?

How does that apply to what you do? Would you step aside if someone could do your job better than you?

If you step aside then you would be able to do a different job that you are even better at.

So everyone should keep looking out for someone who could do their job better than them. When they find that person they should give them their job so that they can go on to work in areas that they excel in.


8 hour sleeping...

Is there a way to do good while you sleep? Create a website that offers advice/ helps others that will be online while you sleep.


8 hours relaxing...

Is there a way to do good while you relax? Finding your passion in life and using that to build something that can be used to help others in your local/global community be it art/writing/acting/dancing/singing/playing...
