and dang, i should maybe do (and broadcast) a 5 minute what-the-heck-is-mlr

I think recording and publishing any presentations we do during the meetup would be pretty fantastic! Happy to help set that up and coordinate.

Could be fun to do some lightning talks around different topics as well! I wouldn’t really want to do a full on presentation but would love to talk for ~5 minutes on code structure for scripts or something similar.

Maybe one big live coding presentation, a bunch of small presentations, and then just hanging out/jamming/coding?

I don’t think we’ve locked down a time yet beyond mid-day?

I’ll be around so I’ll probably open it up to people for most of the day (noon to 6?) even if there’s a fair bit of unstructured time.

#35

What do y’all think about doors/free time at 12, scripting presentation by @tehn at 2, show n’ tell at 4? I would love to meet and hang with everyone, but I also have some stuff to do on Sat that requires a bit of scheduling… Does that work for people? Sorry if I’m being too invasive/type-A about it!

That sounds like a solid schedule.

#37

I’m going to be there if for no other reason than to lurk and learn by osmosis.

FWIW… that evening Basinski is playing an 8 hour retrospective at Issue Project Room and I happen to have an extra ticket. Takers?

We lied down to listen and the guards freaked out --simpler times

would love to join but seeing an artist play for more than 40 minutes makes me wanna die lol ;_;

(not an issue when listening at home but public events are hard I guess)

#40

This is still on right? Still aiming for noonish start time?

#41

This schedule @wheelersounds proposed works for me. I’ll open it up to to everyone at noon. See you all there!

Address again is 56 2nd Ave Studio #16 in Gowanus. You can just buzz when you get there.

It’s by the 9th street F/G/R trains. And if you’re driving know that 2nd Ave between 7th and 9th streets is blocked off because of construction.

#42

I’ll probably arrive around 1 – @mimetaur how do you feel about food and drink in your studio? I was considering bringing some communal snacks…

#43

left this morning at 6:30! on my way.

Snacks are totally welcome!

My studio is half workspace (that I do keep the food/drinks out of) and half “lounge” with a couch and chairs.

I’ve got a mini fridge in there stocked with some waters and beers. There’s no communal kitchen or anything in the building so it’s all very no frills.

@neauoire did you make it to NYC? we are chatting about orca here…

#47

No, I couldn’t make it down. :’(

I had some hardware prototyping done, and I ended up stuck doing back and forths with the vendor throughout most of thursday night…

I wish I was there, I hope you’re saying good things about orca!

#48

It was so cool to meet everyone who could make it out!

I forgot one aspect of Orca, which is that if you use a lower-case operator, it doesn’t function until a bang (*) happens in an adjacent space. So:
.D.
.*.
.i.
will cause the i to advance its number when the D bangs.

Anyway, really looking forward to digging into Norns and showing some of my work at a future event!
And a HUGE thanks to @mimetaur for hosting, it was so great.
