Ok, I got the word that the space is ours. Now it is just a question
of when. How do you want to schedule this?

It will be any Sunday at around 4 or 5... They open at 4, so if we do
it a bit later, that would ensure that everything is open and ready,
and it will give people a bit of time to set anything up. I will need
to know what day we all agree upon within the next week or so, so that
we can reserve the time. There won't be any fee, so the more people
you bring along (it is 21 and up, sorry), it would help with the beer
sales.

December 7th
December 14th
December 21st

Basically, what they have there is a mixing board, which we can plug
into directly, and a nice set of stage speakers, with monitors if
anyone wishes to "perform" from the stage. While they don't have any
"projection" system set up, that doesn't mean that you can't bring
something to use.

If this works out, we could think of doing this once a month, every
other month, once every 3... I also got some ideas of others who might
be interested, they aren't people who use Pd, but I think the more
people we get involved, the more of a chance of having this become a
regular thing. Plus the "Cross-pollination" of ideas would be great. I
was thinking of mentioning this to ESS (Experimental Sound Studio) and
the Chicago Composers Forum. If anyone has any other ideas, please let
me know...

Also, as far as flyers for this, I can get them printed, and if anyone
would like to post some around, that would be great...


Let me know.


Mike
