Is anyone in SoCal interested in starting an Arduino/microcontrolelr user
group?  We've been having Arduino night pretty regularly at the 23b Shop.
Anyone interested in getting together 1-2 time per month?

We have a nice electronics bench, oscilloscope, tons of components/etc.

Hi John,

We've met a couple times, I've got the red CBR600RR. I've been having
a weekly arduino hangout at my house for myself and a couple close
friends. We'd love to come hack some hardware together. Tuesdays (and
every other Thursday for dc949 meeting) is the only day that is not
great for me.

We have the shop available Mon and Wednesday nights, and there is a pretty
active group of people for Saturdays.  Any day work better?

It'd be great to get together with some local Arduino folk.

(related) Instructables is having an Arduino contest: http://www.instructables.com/contest/arduino/

OK, how does an evening next week sound?  Wednesday from 6-9?

We're also at the spe on Sat/Sun doing embedded stuff a lot.

I'm definitely up for a local Arduino group. AFAIK, isn't Tod of BlinkM fame local too? Pasadena?

Just as an FYI, I'm in the middle of the design stages for an 8'x8' "wall of light", sort of like a chessboard with a large matrix of addressable+controllable RGB LED's and would love the chance to discuss implementation details with like-minded engineering types. 

So yes, I'm in!

Thanks,
RMT

OK, I talked with the rest of the Arduino enthusiasts over here, and
Saturday afternoons, from 4pm until late look best.  We can meet up tomorrow
and/or next week.

Yup, I'm in Pasadena.  And I'd love to see and partake in more local  
Arduino happenings.  Last year I was trying to set up "Arduino office  
hours" at Machine Project but never got it fully going.  Regular get- 
togethers to chat microcontroller stuff would be awesome.

Is 23b pretty much the only hackerspace in SoCal?  I wish there was  
one a bit closer to me (or even on the westside, to give me an excuse  
to go beachward)

Aside from Machine Project, we're pretty much it.  You can take the Gold
Line+Metrolink here if you don't feel like driving. We're right next to the
station.

we've got this hacker space in downtown that's not quite totally organized
(no website yet) but would be very interested in hosting an arduino
workshop.  evenings wednesday through sunday are available.  relevant to an
electronics workshop, we've got a scope, a soldering station and lots of
space.  I think i even have a couple unassembled BBB arduino
clones<http://www.moderndevice.com/>
.

not relevant, but we've also got a green screen, complete silk screen setup,
some common metal shop tools and a sewing shop.

the space is called TOW and located at 1450 E. 6th st. 90021   phone:
323.319.2332

contact me if you want to get involved and i'll announce the website soon.

i'm not sure where the edison reference came from.  but one of TOW's metal
shop folks is a manager over there.  soooo, you can talk to him.

their dress code keeps me away, i'm more likely to be found down the alley
at the smell.

Ooh, love the idea of Arduino Office Hours at Machine Project. I'd be up for
being a part of that!

And/or something a bit closer to the Pasadena/Glendale/Burbank area.

My Artistic Director for my Zombie Cabaret troupe is good friends with
the Edison folks (her coffeeshop is in the same building). If you guys
put something together, I'll talk to her about proposing it. And sure,
I'd come on down for a hardware hack/creator meeting. But I'm more
about brains atm. Course, if you have ideas for hardware
hacking/zombie mashup activities, I'm all for submitting audiences to
it. And I do have audiences....

Perhaps the hackerspace should not also be at a place with a dress code. The
hackerspace should be about tech and what people are building, not what kind

It only has a dress code during club nights.  But I think that TOW  
already has a location and won't need to be at the Edison.  Either way  
I highly recommend checking out the Edison at least once, even if it  
means doffing the black t-shirt and donning a button-down.

Tacitus, I was really just kidding about the Edison as a hackerspace!  
Just a fun place to imbibe, not hack ;)

Really, Garnet? If only I had known! The lounge in the
old boiler portion is awesome and walking amongst the
old dynamos is a pleasure. Go when Lucent Dossier is
performing and you're in for a treat.

I thought this might be of interest to fellow Dorkbotters.

Digi (the creator of the XBee module which is based on the IEEE
802.15.4 standard and the ZigBee Alliance specs) is having a design
contest.

http://www.digi.com/designcontest/

The design contest is cool but what is even cooler is they have great
deals on the starter kits. On the contest page the featured kits that
are normally $299 are $149. And if you are a student you can get an
additional $75 off bringing the cost of the iDigi X4 Starter kit (for
example) from $299 to $74!!! Sweet!

?I just bought this kit
http://www.digi.com/products/wirelessdropinnetworking/idigi-kits/x4-zb.jsp#overview
?using my student discount and I can't wait for it to show up. I also
picked up a few extra modules to play around with. Still looking for a
cheap source for the breakout boards though... let me know if you know
of any.

Cheers,
Brian

Hey everyone,

I mentioned a hackerspace coming together in downtown, it's called TOW and
we're hosting an art opening tonight.  The show will be up for the rest of
the week.


*Modern Nomads: An Anthropological Exhibition of a Lost Culture Not Yet
Founded*
*A collaborative installation from the TOW collective*

>From womb to worm, factory to furnace, drawing board to scrap heap.
We chase objects, chase cattle, chasing grass, chasing the summer sun.
Are we anything beyond transient?
Are we anything but nomads?
What are our tribes?
What are our herds?
Will this go on forever?

*Also featuring:*
-Live bands
-Homebrew beer sampling from TOW's Anachronistic Food Preservation Club
-Live screen printing
-Ink and watercolor pieces by Paul Arden
-And more artwork from resident TOWoids

Show opening this Saturday, the 17th.
Begins at 9 PM.

This is a fundraiser for the space, so there will be a $5 door charge.

TOW is located at:
1450 E. Sixth St.
Downtown Los Angeles
90021

Message-ID: <ea383a270910201133v60a50e91udb17edb9935a9c@mail.gmail.com>

Hey Dorkbotters:

I'm involved in a demo at this year's DigiFest event on November 4th,
and the director of the lab (who has also presented at Dorkbot SoCal)
said it'd be fine if I invited anybody involved with Dorkbot to the
event.  The event is free, but registration is required:
http://www.afi.com/dcl

Here is info about the event:

AFI DigiFest 2009
November 4
Mann Chinese Theater #1
Admission is free of charge.
DAY ONE of AFI DigiFest showcases cutting-edge digital media
prototypes incubated in the AFI Digital Content Lab during the
previous year. For eleven years, the Lab has convened teams of
industry experts who brainstorm solutions to cross-platform
challenges. This year's projects illustrate the ever-widening spectrum
of development and distribution options open to today?s creators while
optimizing for the consumers' eagerness to view and interact with
content across a variety of screens.
This year, featured AFI Digital Content Lab projects include:
?? a social network and proposed marketing plan for INTERVIEW PROJECT
PRESENTED BY DAVIDLYNCH.COM;
? a proposed online strategy for engaging youth in a series of
relevant environmental action challenges for the Leonardo DiCaprio
Foundation;
? a mobile application that provides an interactive past-to-future
timeline for an innovative ITVS cross-platform micro-series;
? an interactive mentoring environment for One Economy that encourages
students from low-income families to learn more about science as a
career;
? a MOBILE STORY MAKER session with longtime filmmaker L.M. Kit
Carson, who shot the deeply moving micro-series AFRICA DIARY using a
Nokia mobile phone as camera. The series is soon to air on the
Sundance Channel.



Cocktail party and poolside screening of select short films at the
historic Roosevelt Hotel to follow.



AFI DigiFest 2009

DAY TWO of AFI DigiFest offers a curated look at the most innovative
digital media productions released during the past year. An
eye-opening window onto the emerging digital media landscape, the

aggressively cross-platform, and always inventive. Previous invitees
have included two Interactive Media Emmy winners, previews of
intriguing broadband episodic series, and previews of at
soon-to-be-released videogames and alternate reality game (ARG)
environments.
Among the invited presenters this year are:
? DISTRICT 9, a behind-the scenes look at games and an augmented
reality application created by production house Trigger;

thousands of animators from around the world, masterminded by Mass
Animation's Yair Landau, former vice-chair of Sony Pictures;

reality may well look like a year from now.
? and more!
