This week has been blessed with lots of good news about 7 Wonders in 7 Days.
The latest is that award winning cellist and pioneer of contemporary music, Peter Gregson’s performance at the Charity Auction and Tweetup at the Living Room on Deansgate on 25th June will be live streamed on the internet by none other than Josh R aka @technicalfault, Digital Producer for the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC).
Josh oversaw the live streaming of Trevor Phillips, Chair of the Commission’s keynote lecture at the Race in Britain conference earlier in the year. I’m thrilled that he has agreed to live stream Peter’s performance and know it will open the event to a much wider web audience.
The live stream will really complement the Twitter back channel being organised for the event by Julian Tait aka julianlstar.
Josh is one of the latest members of Team 7 Wonders. Welcome aboard Josh!
Student blogger extraordinaire Ricky Chotai aka @ricky_chotai is another. Ricky has written for the respected Mobile Industry Review. He will blogging about the 7 Wonders in 7 Days campaign, both on 7wondersin7days.com and on top mobile blog, The Really Mobile Project.
Louise Bolotin, @louisebolotin, the writer and blogger behind the successful TwitterTitters campaign will also be blogging about the project and is another new member.
As far as the PR and press campaign for the campaign is concerned, I’m pleased to announce that Katie Moffat, @katiemoffat, the freelance PR and communications specialist behind Manchester Twestival is also part of the team.
Katie is probably the only other person in Manchester with experience in organising a large, social media powered charity campaign and I’m really grateful for all the support she has given the 7 Wonders in 7 Days project since the very start.
You can read more about Josh, Julian, Ricky, Louise and Katie on the Team 7 Wonders page. Welcome aboard all!
Next week should see more exciting news about the project. There’s a clutch of videos featuring live music and interviews from the first 7 Wonders in 7 Days musical outing to come.
I’m also approaching some rather special people (read: celebrities) regarding donations for the auction on the 25th. I’ll keep you posted!
If you would like to donate an item to our charity auction, please leave me a comment or drop me a line.
We’re still after some tunes for our last.fm radio, to be played at the Charity Auction and Tweetup. If you’re on last.fm, join our group and stream something from any of the 7 countries with 7 wonders. They are: Mexico, Peru, Brazil, Italy, Jordan, India and China. Perhaps consider tweeting about it? Thank you.
What do you think? Suggest a celebrity I could approach for a donation to the charity auction in the comments and I may actually do it!
