Speaking of trading DVDs and "Pixelodeon to go" - the Pixelodeon DVDs of the curated sessions already exist. There actually *could* be a Pixelodeon to go if the organizers were amenable. Why do all that downloading/editing/authoring again when it's been done? Of course do it for your own curated session if you want, but, would it be possible to use what's been done? My local microcinema "No Festival Required" would probably be game for one or two of the Pixelodeon sessions. They would probably love a month off from gathering the material themselves.
