Maybe we could start with Humu's plan for a Historical Society. I love the idea of declaring a restaurant as a historical location in the poly pop context. Preserving sites is already part of Polynesia Americana's mission statement. This alone could save the remaining establishments from being demolished or worse remodeled into some hideous gentrification problem.. Since none of us who are discussing this seriously actually live in Hawaii now, maybe we could start with a virtual museum. Then there could be traveling exhibitions that could go all over the world. and each person involved with the museum could travel to exhibit locations and teach docents or give special lectures, or host gala openings! then we could work our way up to Hawaii. We could also create satellite locations where the local chapter of the historical society could meet and plan events, do fund-raising, and learn and or teach about poly pop. I'm with you Sven, its also hard for me as an artist to think on the left side. I cant even get my web site up and Ive been trying to do that for 10yrs. I have the creative part all worked out but cant get past that point. Anyway big ideas always start out with creative thinkers
