hello AMSers
here's an event before we go back to college that may get you going for the (no doubt awesome) year ahead of you :)
a free cosplay mecha event.
Dear A.M.S.
I'm a Dublin artist working
in affiliation with the Kilmainham Arts Festival to organise Ireland's
first (as far as I am aware) Mecha and Armor cosplay event on Saturday
the 4th of September 2010.
The theme and title of the event will be "Knights
of Mecha". This is a completely free event - all that participants have
to do is build and wear on the day a cosplay of their favourite Mecha
or Armor (Armour) Animé character. The event will be held in the
suitably-cloistered surrounds of the main courtyard of the IMMA (Irish
Museum of Modern Art). Please find here attached images of the official
flyer for the gathering.
I felt that this event would be of great interest
to a lot of your attendees and/or members, and so I was wondering (and
would be extremely grateful) if there was some way that you could let
them know about 'Knights of Mecha', if at all possible. The event will
take place from 11:00am until 2:00pm, after which the cosplayers will
have the opportunity to enjoy the rest of the Arts Festival, which is
only running for that day. There will be a prize for the best cosplay
on the day. More information on 'Knights of Mecha' can be found on http://mechaknights.blogspot.com, and information on the Arts Festival is on www.kilmainhamartsclub.wordpress.com.
Thank you for your time,
Regards,
So Give it a look and go, did we mention its FREE?
so don your favorite gundam or go for the spectacle
more regards

Hello all, Philip here, some of you may not know me as I've been absent from
AMS this year. Anyways, I'm the Staff Manager for Eirtakon. This will be my
third year in the role having been offered the position after Volunteer
Staffing the preceeding two Eirtakons.
Last year ran amazingly smoothly, we had the right number of Volunteer Staff
for all the tasks required to run Eirtakon. Every year though Eirtakon gets
bigger and better, so to ensure things run just as smoothly as last year I
shall be recruiting a few more staff than last year. Many of last years
staff have already agreed to return for Eirtakon 2010 so only a few places
remain. So if you'd like to Volunteer to staff Eirtakon 2010 don't delay do
it today!
Being staff does not mean you miss out on any of the excitement of Eirtakon.
If there's an event at Eirtakon that you really don't want to miss then tell
me and I will do my very best to Ensure you have free time then so you can
attend.
There are a few requirements to being staff however!
1) Staff need to be present for the entire duration of the weekend -
Saturday and Sunday
(it's understandable that if you're not 18 you can't attend the Friday pub
quiz, if you could however aid in the numerous other tasks needed to be done
on Friday before the pub quiz starts it'd be appreciated)
2)Staff need to be present in the Convention Centre by 8:30am on Saturday
and Sunday morning.
(Breakfast will be provided at 8:30. We need staff in early as Attendees
arrive early)
3)Staff need to be Sixteen years of Age or Over
4)Staff need to have previously attended Eirtakon (Waivered for DCU student
AMS members)
(This allows people to understand the scale of the commitment they're
undertaking when volunteering)
5)Staff need to work at Eirtakon
(Talking to friends for a few mins when it's quiet is fine. Talking for ages
when it's busy is not)
6)Staff need to take the initiative in work
(Don't wait for me to tell you to do something, Each task is made up of alot
of little jobs, look in the manual and make sure you've done them all)
7)Don't try and do everything yourself
(I'll be assigning 3 people to the same task each time so share the workload
over the three of you, we don't want anyone to have a meltdown from
overworking )
If you can meet all those requirements and would like to help us at Eirtakon
2010 on the 15th-17th of October by being a Volunteer staff member then
please send me an email with your real name, age and E-mail address to
staffmanager(a)eirtakon.com
I look foward to hearing from you
Philip Daly a.k.a. cade
Eirtakon Staff manager
Hey
I am a final year student doing my dissertation on *Sensitivity in
Advertising in the DCU community* and an AMS member. I was meaning to come
along to AMS on Thursday and ask people to take part in the survey but
Stephen accidentally booked Iron Man 2 that evening. ;-p I would like to
know DCU students opinions on these controversial advertisements. If would
be great if international students would take part too. If you have a friend
who is a DCU student it would be great if you could pass the survey on to
them. It should only take 5-6 mins of your time.
I would really appreciate if you could take part and could give your honest
opinion. When you completed the survey please email them back to me.
Thanks very much,[?]
