ebb13

btw, this is done and i think in the hands of all relevant parties. i think i might have a couple left, so if you didn’t get one and you want one, let me know. it’s guaranteed to be 78.95% less bleepy than ebb12.

feedback has been exceedingly positive for this one; in fact roo called it “the best ever”. i don’t know if that’s true, but i do think about something we talked about at a recent andc planning meeting: the value of care and intention. basically when attending events, guests really enjoyed it when the organizers had put a lot of thought and intention around creating an experience where the guests were cared for and every little part of their experience had been considered, from lovely invitations, to flowers and candles in the bathroom, to orange slices at 4am. they all add up to make the guests feel that they were at something special, something out of the ordinary, to underscore that they were valued guests at an extraordinary gathering, not just some people at a party.

in this way i wonder if it’s the same thing with ebb13, in that instead of the normal playmate-style nekkid chix (sex sells, baby!), i opted for a much different look, with special graphics and a beautiful beautiful “jane austen” handwritten font, printed it on special vellum paper, and then hand-wrapped each one like a little gift. which certainly doesn’t effect the quality of the actual music inside, but perhaps changes your perception of the whole package, and maybe makes you feel like you’re already getting something a little special right off the bat.

which, of course, you are.

but only you.
