Well, I guess my point was not so much an "emphasis" on a HUMAN type
of performance, I would be very interested in hearing the types of
things you do for these installations... I guess that is why I really
don't know what to expect, but I would find it very dry if all we did
was talk about code. Pd is just an means to an end, in my view, and
the results are the final product, not the code to get those final
results... Not to say that I don't want to hear about the code...

Guess that is why I am not really sure what this would entail.
