Hi list,
Sei and I have launched Pure Data Portal Website for Japanese users in February (http://puredatajapan.info)
and we are very happy to announce that we will hold a launch event of our portal website in May.
The entire event will be webcasted using Ustream; We have selected a venue specialized for it!
The event features not only presentations and lectures but also many demos and live-performances by Japanese Pd users. For example, a user employs Pd for controlling LED-corsage, and another presenter utilizes Pd for getting data from his own touch-interfaces. We are pretty sure that the show will be inspiring even if you do not understand Japanese ; )
Website: http://tokyomax.jp/pd/ The URL of the webcast: http://2-5-d.jp Date and Time: May 29. 2013 18:30 - 23:00 JST
The number of Pd users in Japan is gradually increasing. I hope Pd will soon become one of the most popular creative tools among the citizens of presumably the most geekiest country on the earth !
best regards, Chikashi Miyama (Pure Data Japan)
