The ridicule is well deserved!  Sorry for not making it more clear...

The workshop series is organized by Dorkbot PDX (Portland, OR) and the first session will be held at the Pacific Northwest College of Art (in Portland, OR).

   DorkbotPDX introduces free Pure Data workshop series
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   We are excited to announce a new workshop series devoted to Pure Data
   (Pd). http://puredata.info/

   "Pd (aka Pure Data) is a real-time graphical programming environment
   for audio, video, and graphical processing. It is the third major
   branch of the family of patcher programming languages known as Max
   (Max/FTS, ISPW Max, Max/MSP, jMax, etc.) originally developed by
   Miller Puckette and company at IRCAM."

   Pure Data is free [FLOSS] software - meaning there is no charge for
   the download and it is open source, (free/libre). It runs wonderfully
   on Mac, Linux, Windows - so bring any laptop. Come with Pd-extended
   installed if possible - otherwise come a little early for installation
   assistance. The workshop is free as well!

   We will will be doing several workshops starting from the ground up -
   and ranging topics as advanced as there is interest for.

   Workshop One will be held May 17th. No prior Pd or programming
   knowledge is required, but expect to leave with functional knowledge
   of how to use Pd. The outline in progress can be found here:
   http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/pd_workshop_2009_outline

   But we want to hear from you! We'd love to get a rough idea of how
   many people are interested in attending.

   Do you use Pd? Do you use similar commercial software like Max/MSP? Are
   you interested in learning Pd? Why? What are some of your ideas?

   Pd is an incredibly open-ended platform so we're trying to get an idea
   of where the majority's (if there is a majority) interests lie....
   Physical Interfaces for music? Live DSP? Generative composition?
   Video? Dance? Robotic cat toys? Feedforward most welcome!

   Bring a laptop with Pd-extended installed, if possible. Otherwise come
   a little early for installation help!

   When: May 17th, 2009
   Where: PNCA room 205 <- [[in Portland, OR!]]

   Time: 1-5pm

   See you there!
