I could still meet informally on the 18th. I'd also like to recommend a meet up location different than a bar, at least for future meetings. Rumble Arts Center, in Humbolt Park, offers affordable meeting space. I spoke with the person in charge and she said she usually they charge $50 to rent a

Why don't we meet informally on the 18th? We could just demonstrate patches and whatnot and save a more formal show for February. I, too, have less to show by now than I had hoped, but I'd still like to get together and see what else people are doing in PD. -- Jacob Lee artd...@gmail.com On

Hey Chi-town Pd-ers~ This may be a little late, but I can do the 18th of January. Is this going to happen still, or should we push it back to February to get a little promotion time? Let's decide soon. ~Kyle On Sun, Dec 28, 2008 at 3:35 PM, Mike McGonagle mjm...@gmail.com wrote: Well, any

Well, my vote would be for February, as the stuff I have been working on is kind of slow going... plus it just seems that the 18th is a bit closer than I had anticipated. Maybe we should set a date NOW in February, and then make plans for that... But, if others would still like to shoot for the

Well, any suggestions would be welcome. While I am not quite certain, I am pretty sure that we can still meet at the Red Line Tap, they just want to get a few more bodies in to buy a beer or two for the time we are there... The 18th is the third sunday... does that sound like a good day? Anyone

From my experience, I think it is good to just start having meetings, whether they are small or not. If you have a small group that you want to meet, then meet. Then next time, you can organize more. I know that I often get caught up in the details, but that small meetings can be a

I think we should make it all dependent on people planning on going. Anyone interested in still meeting at Red Line Tap on Sunday, December 14th, at 5pm, please say so. If we don't get at least 5 responses, I motion to table the meeting for a later date. ~Kyle On Thu, Dec 4, 2008 at 6:21 PM, Mike

Sorry to hear about your situation, Mike. It doesn't look like we will get 5 response, but I am still interested. W.r.t. the owner of the Red Line, If we were to reschedule in the first half of January (when my college friends are in town), I'd be able to get 5-10 beer-drinking patrons to show

Actually, January sounds like a wonderful Idea. I really don't think there will be much trouble to use the RedLine then as well, as their Sunday Afternoons are usually open, and they are not very busy... From looking at some of the pictures of the other events, can I assume that everyone was all

Yikes! So what should we do? Is the time still available, and you are just unable to make it? Or will we have to reschedule/find a new venue? I know of a location that might possibly work for a meeting, but will have to network a bit to get it going. it's called the Rumble Arts Center, in Humbolt

I say go ahead and do it, I will have to check with the RedLine about you guys doing it there, but there concern is only in bringing in a few more customers during the slow hours. It sounded like you wouldn't really need the whole sound system, just a good set of desktop speakers. Let me know,

I think an informal round table about what our usages of Pd are would be a good start. It would be nice to have some various examples. I'm sure we all do things different ways, so I expect to learn a lot just by seeing someone's project and being able to pepper them with questions/try it out/be

Well, I am open to anything, but I am interested to see what the final products that people are creating, or even just works in progress. It is one thing to just look at the software, but I think that the whole point of using the software is to create something that is MORE than just the software?
