Hot on the heels of our previous post about the in-world Jonathan Coulter concert, I've got a treat: Adri Saarinen, PR manager for the event, has given us a wonderful interview about her work with PopSci and the Creative Commons group. Thanks, Adri!

SLI: How did you come to be involved in this project?

Adri: Well, I've done some PR for various SL organizations and events, so when Creative Commons contacted Zenigma Suntzu to produce a concert, he contacted me to handle the PR side of things. Zen was contacted because he produced the City Stages concert last winter.

SLI: So you're a team on this; who else is involved?

Adri: Zen as the producer, I'm working on the PR, and Slim Warrior is providing the venue and handling concert logistics. And, of course, the Creative Commons and PopSci.com teams working from their end.

SLI: How has it been working with CC and PopSci? How much collaboration do they give?

Adri: CC and PopSci.com have been very involved in the process, mostly consulting through email on things like logo placement. They also, of course, provided the concert budget!

More after the jump!

I can't believe I missed this one. The Shelter is not only my home away from home, but host to many fun and varied games. I've already posted about Second Fortune and Trivial Obsession, but somehow missed Payment Podium!

Based loosely on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire", this game features some of the most mind-wrenching trivia questions I've ever seen. I live in perpetual fear that the dreaded Question #4 will get me (That's the point at which the questions get really fiendishly difficult). Of course, what makes the game are the shouted comments from the audience, ranging from helpfully correct answers to hilarious references and non-sequiturs.

Payment Podium takes place at 6 PM Sundays (with your host, Dolmere Talamasca -- hi, cousing Dol!), Tuesdays (hosted by the Brian-est of doggies, Travis Lambert), and Thursdays (hosted by none other than the Incomparable Sumar Morgan). Go check it out, but remember to wear your protective numeral-diffusing armor; #4 is always there, and it never sleeps.
