We are reviving the New York City Patching Circle! http://puredata.info/community/NYCPatchingCircle

We spend enough time alone staring at our computers; we are proposing to work together. So often issues that arise when working can be solved with a quick two minute discussion that would take hours to solve alone. We have Dorkbot to see people's work, we have Share where anyone can play, we have workshops and universities to learn from. This is a meeting where we all can come to work.

This is an informal gathering of patching and patchers (Pd, Max/MSP/ Jitter, and even vvvv, EyesWeb, etc.). Beginners and Experienced welcome. Open to everyone, students, the public, etc. Work on school projects, personal projects, ask for help, help others, or just patch quietly to yourself, in a room full of other people patching patches and helping other people patch.

Time: Saturday, November 22nd, noon-6pm

Place: This meeting will take place in the Eyebeam Education Lab:

540 W. 21st Street, (between 10th and 11th Avenues) New York, NY 10011 Tel. 212.937.6580

(Previous meetings were held at Brooklyn Polytechnic, now we are roving.)
