Midterm congrats!

Dear Loadbangers,

I'm really pleased and proud with how you all did tonight - "Project 1" was a big success! Let's build on it and make our early-December gig in the Krannert Art Museum something to remember. I have two goals in mind for December:
  • Work with video (Jitter)
  • Work in ways and with people you haven't tried yet.
For Monday I would like to look over folks' patches from tonight and look for the good things, and the things that could be improved. The main patcher people will probably have some thoughts about how to improve their patches, as well.

The December gig should have no more than 50 minutes of music, I'm guessing; so we need to start figuring out who will be writing (or "writing") pieces, how long they will be, who will play in them, etc. The people who did the main patching this time, I'm going to ask you to let others come to the fore; maybe you can concentrate on Jitter, or on fine-tuning what you already have. If you haven't done much patching yet, roll up your sleeves and get ready to work! Thanks again and have a good weekend!
