Pd-Berlin Users Group
Pd-Berlin Users Group
Pd-Berlin are meetings with Pd-minded people, happening on selective Tuesdays at NK (Elsenstr. 52, 2HH 2Etage). Please check this wiki to know exactly when the next meeting will be.
There is a google group for us now, you can subscribe here.
Meetings will also be announced in the NK and Pd newsletters, as well as in other forums - microsound, cec, degem, ...
Next Meeting
Tuesday, 24th January 2012, 20h00
Besides normal Pd subjects, this reunion will be the first to prepare for the Berlin module of the Pd Convention (Weimar) in August. As the Pd community will be organising a weekend of events, we invite you to bring suggestions about these topics:
- concrete aesthetical/technical defintions of the events already discussed in the group
- how do you want to get involved with the organisation and participation?
- suggestions to get support for the events
- places to host participants from abroad
- etc.
Doors are open from 20h-20h15. After that they'll be closed, and you will have to call someone from the Pd-meeting to get in. To get a telephone number to call or confirm assistance you can write to info_at_minitronics.net.
Please, don´t call to the staff of NK to open the doors. They let us use the space but we have to take care about having the meeting without producing any disturbance to them, and to clean the space after the meeting.
We would appreciate if you would send us a short mail to info_at_minitronics.net with your name, Pd experience and interests, so that we know how many people might be coming.
What we do
The scope of these meetings can be any (or none) of the following:
- patch/project showcase
- programming
- work on general Pd documentation
- help for beginners (installation, programming tips, ...)
- or something else you want to do ...
Just come along, bring your laptop, and sit down with us. Necessary prerequisites are only a computer and good mood. If Pd isn't on it, we'll download and install it.
