So I think there will be some costs if we want to do things like buy food to cook.
Ideally we wouldn’t have to spend money on anything, so I’m gonna ask and see if we can get any sort of funding from Eyebeam.
But all y’alls should think – is there some grant money you’ve got lying around? Is there a grant we should apply for? Should we have a fundraiser/bake sale?
I’ll let you know if we can get money from Eyebeam at all, especially for stuff like hosting webspace. I was hoping to secure $100 or so to use just for buying up all the amazing domain names that we will inevitably come up with over the course of the night.
The Great Internet Sleepover 
I asked Paul at Eyebeam who has been my contact in all this. He says that funding is probably not possible. Its weird – I’m not a Artist in Residence or Research Fellow over there, which would probably get me funding. And the archiving project that I AM working on is not really related exactly to this net sleepover. So he said in this case its more like an outside group using Eyebeam’s facilities, and staff members, which is all provided for free.
Guess the rest of the $$$ is on us.
