You're the second person who's mentioned video or streaming. There's a pretty good chance we'll record it - streaming is less likely. I'll make sure I post links to whatever video we make.

Hi there.
Sounds like a great event you've got going! I am all excited just imagining all the joy that may be there.
Do you by any chance have plans to shoot video recordings and posting them to hint us how it turns out?
Just thought I'd ask in case no one in your crew had considered it..

Hey folks
Just in case there are Pd users hanging about in or around Toronto that I'm not in regular contact with who don't have anything to do next Thursday night. This is bound to be loads of fun. All the participants are really cool and funny people.
Anything you can do (in Max), I can do better (in PD) Date: Thursday, July 24, 8pm onwards Cost: Free! Yes, FREE. No need to register- come one, come all! With Celebrity Guest Host Misha Glouberman Competitors: Frank Tsonis vs. Dafydd Hughes and David McCallum
Come take sides in this fight to the death between those open-source PD Commies and the right-wing, proprietary, puppy-hating MAX/MSPers.
There has been a long and bloody rivalry between those who would make new media art with Pure Data, a free, open source graphical programming language, and proponents of MAX/MSP, Pd's slick, commercial half-brother. We intend to open these old wounds, pour salt, beer and whatever else we can find into them, push both programs and programmers to the brink of collapse and determine once and for all which is better.
Join host Misha Glouberman as he leads our contestants through a series of increasingly difficult challenges with play-by-play commentary by Nicholas Stedman and game show music with Graham Collins. Watch as Frank Tsonis (team MAX) and David McCallum and Dafydd Hughes (team Pd) try to come up with the fastest, sexiest and most effective solutions, all the while fighting against each other, the clock, and the inevitable nerds who think they can do it better.
If you have experience with either of these programs (or if you don't) and you think you can do better than our resident gurus, or even if you just want to play along, feel free to bring a laptop, work on the challenges, aid or abuse our contestants or just check your email. The popcorn's on us; it's free to watch, participate, heckle, throw fruit, and bet on who's gonna get an ass-beating.
