We have all joined the SF0 movement because it captured our fancy. A wonderful way in which to express the mundane, the bizarre, the oddities and make them the gems of life. A way to make it worth getting up in the morning with a hang over.
The ways in which we express that fancy can be limitless. The group that we align ourselves with is but a spring board for exploring those exact limitless planes that we desire. Absorption of others, dissolution of one, brings us not closer to our desires, but separates us from them. Futile minutes spent discussing the pros and cons of this group or that could be better spent tasking.
I do however feel, yes getting to the point now, that we need a new group. One that is similarly aligned to the University, because that is where so many were first drawn. But this new group would be more involved with for example, Art in a public arena. Transient art. Art of no importance. A group that explores the myriad of levels in which the visual can ignite and inform.
More of a collective than a university. More experiemental in practise. I don't even know if I would join it, but I think it would be a rather loverly addition and I would totally make out with anyone in that group.

Yeah, I saw a couple of the new group proposals. They look interesting as well.
Check out The Revolutionary's similar praxis here.
For your interest, there are also three proposals for new groups that you may have missed (including one which is kind of a splinter U of A group): Chrononautic Exxon and SNIDE and LEWL.
