The Chief Curator is duty bound to listen to
everything posted on the group.
(And you can quote me on that.)

25. The Facebook Group is up at https://
www.facebook.com/groups/276033312590415/

26. To join the group, you must agree to three things.
To Listen
(to as many
songs as
possible)
To Share
(your own work,
or your input, as
often as you can)
To Support
(each other with
comments, tips, or
by sharing each
other’s work.)

27. The group is closed, meaning to join, you will need
to PM one of the the admins (me or my moderators)
and ask for approval to join. This is NOT to exclude
anyone (because that would be a world of suck)—
it’s just so we can keep track of everyone and
implement our membership “system.”

28. [the membership system]
To keep L.i.T. organised and conducive for
collective creativity (we dare you to say that 10
times fast), we ask members to choose a
category of membership when you request
membership.

29. [membership categories]
mentors
movers (or “GPs”)
explorers
leaders
listeners

URGENTLY NEEDED!
!
These are the admins, moderators, and project
managers (for our future plans!) who help keep
the project running by compiling the
newsletter, monitoring discussions, inviting
new members, and taking care of our existing
members’ community needs.
!
This is a non-exclusive membership type
—Leaders can also choose to be listed in
another membership category.

31. [membership categories]
mentors
movers (or “GPs”)
explorers
leaders
listeners
Semi-professionals and professionals.
Those who have experience with music
and/or the music industry, either via
formal training or industry exposure (or
both). Mentors are there to inspire other
members, give constructive criticism, and
otherwise help the rest of the community
grow through their learning.

32. [membership categories]
mentors
movers (or “GPs”)
explorers
leaders
listeners
Movers are passionate amateurs who embrace
their instrument and thus have gathered
considerable knowledge in their field and
genre(s). They stand to benefit from Mentors’
advice, but can also give advice to each other,
and to the Explorers.

33. [membership categories]
mentors
movers (or “GPs”)
explorers
leaders
listeners
Beginners looking for a supportive
community to ignite their musical
passion. Explorers post their works
primarily to gain constructive
feedback and advice on how to
improve, and will benefit from the support
and encouragement of the mentors,
movers, and listeners.

34. [membership categories]
mentors
movers (or “GPs”)
explorers
leaders
listeners
Music-lovers who, while not
playing music, are passionate
about hearing new music and
engaging with a musical
community. Are in the collective
to learn, to help share and
support, and perhaps to “get LiT”
and become an Explorer.

35. I am MOTIVATED. I am a mover.
I am GRATEFUL. I am a mentor.
I am COURAGEOUS. I am an explorer.
I am CURIOUS. I am a listener.
I am DEVOTED. I am a leader.

36. Members are asked to stay in one category for at
least SIX MONTHS before asking to change.
This is just to make sure you got the most out of your time
in that category.
