ORIGINAL ARTWORK ONLY!
Keep the following elements in mind as inspiration for your logo and art:

Keep raising the bar, don't be satisfied with the status quo and constantly invite new ideas and new players. Membership is automatic, you make a difference, you are one of us, no dues other than shocking us with your beautiful innovations and upping your standards of quality and perfection. A community of beautiful creations, that shock stun and make us marvel at the beauty that lives in the next person. Don't tell us the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon.

We inspire each other in a never ending race, displacing each other in our quest for adding greater value to society. Today we might be second best, tomorrow we know we might be the best - the quest is never ending. No directors, committees, nannies or politicians needed, our passion is society’s benefactor. Those who want to exercise power over us should seek less passionate folk to mess with.

The brief is a guide but open to your interpretation

The brief is purposely open - but to help a little we are looking for a visual design that can sum up Freedom and Creativity. A saying or word, a logo, a design that will inspire others when they see it. Creativity is limitless and open to possibility, let your creativity flow.

It will be used to excite the creatives out there to leap their boundaries, stretch their limits to explore, create, design and discover what it means to truly be creative.
