At the last We Take Requests, Gabe Gets and I (Saleem Reshamwala) wandered through Durham, NC, collecting artistic requests for a gallery show that would start in 24 hours.
And then we teamed up with a bunch of rad local artists and made as many of those requests come to life as was humanly possible for us.
THIS TIME we're teaming up with ArtSho international and Debris Space. Requests will come from guests at the opening of a gallery event in Istanbul (10 am our time), and we'll try and complete those requests AND send things in digital form over the next 6 hours.
At the start, it will likely be just be me and Gabe, but over the course of the next few hours, we'll be joined by a crew of local musicians and artists to see what we can make happen (I'll post some of their names right before the event).
You'll see it evolve at #IstanbulRequests starting at 10am Eastern time, US, on Friday Nov. 20, 2014.
Expectation: At the very least, we're going to try and push a crew of local musicians to write a song from scratch based on requests, and we'll then shoot and edit a music video for it. And show it to you.
At 6pm, there's a gallery opening in the gallery next door, so why not come through then, check out the event next to us and then come see what we've made? And Scrap Exchange's Junk Jam is right afterwards, so you can bang on some metal in an insane drum circle. A lot to love.
