[microsound-announce] experimental concert series in Austria needs your help (will take just a second to help)

[chmafu]

Dear microsounders, hi Matthew,

Thanks for your interest!
The state is about to cut financial support for cultural and social 
institutions by 25%. This means that many people will lose their jobs. 
It means less help for handicapped people. It means less help for kids 
in troubles and so on. And obviously it means that many cultural things 
like my concert series are in danger of not being able to keep up their 
work.
My idea is that many likes on that facebook page could be used to show 
the politicians that Mittwochs Exakt is important. Something like a 
petition. Well, I am thinking about starting a petition too. If I do so 
I will post about here.....

Matthew, I'll write you off-list.

Thanks,
maru
