Also take a look at Share, which is in New York. http://www.share.dj . They're not specifically open source, but they're all electronic. They also have help on how to get your own Share going, and the organizers are friendly folk who'd be glad to give you advice if you email them.

I have tried posting the message below to the pd_announce list but it was returned twice, I thought I will post it here instead. Many thanks.

Hi there:

Me and a friend of mine are thinking of putting together a audio/visual performance event with the focus on the use of free/open source software in London. With any luck, we intend to run the event semi-regularly and perhaps develop it towards a group/community/workshop kind of thing based in and around London. Apologies if it sounds a bit vague at the moment, but its a start.

Because of this, we would like to know what people's opinion are towards events/groups like this. Any help or suggestion are welcome. If there are similar group/event already running successfully elsewhere on the planet, it will be great to know and see how its done.

As a result, if you have suggestions, please let us know, if you know people who might be interested in or already doing similar thing, please let us know. If you know a friend who knows a friend who knows a friend who might be interested, well, I will stop here:)

You can contact us at: leechun@leechun.freeserve.co.uk dave@pawfal.org

Or just reply to this list and I will pick it up.

Many thanks

Yours

CHUN

Hallo, chun lee hat gesagt: // chun lee wrote:

Thanks for your reply, piksel looks very interesting, not sure if we can manage something at the same scale as piksel at the beginning though.

Our idea is that though getting together, a digital play ground can take place. A place for people to meet people, for people to come and see how things are done, for people to collaborate and so on.

I think, this is a great idea, and if you manage to do this on a regular scale, I will surely try to drop by when I'm in the vicinity of London (which is only maybe once a year, though...)

Might I suggest talking/ looking at dorkbot.org

They run a London based event. Tho not directly aligned there is a certain intersection of interest between PD users and what they do.

Hi there:

Thanks for your reply and yes, we are aware of the dorkbot and its certainly kind of the direction we are aiming at but with the focus on the free/open source software.

Cheers

Hi there:

Thanks for your reply. Collaboration would be great! For the moment, we have got a wiki site going at:

http://openlab.seedwiki.com

I will post a separate thread in the announcement list about this with more detail in the next couple of days.

Peace

hi,

I help run the share event in NYC, while not specifically geared towards open source, we definitely have that 'edge' for open systems. (and im pretty in to o.s. :).

Share is currently working on releasing an open source set of community building tools, specifically our new web page (its running in beta, and almost done). Feel free to email us at contact@share.dj to ask any questions about share, our tools and how we went about finding such kick ass people that make up our weekly event :). Wed love to have some international sets going and to see other places doing similar things.

Weve done an international event called anyware (http://share.dj/events/anyware/), and are looking for some more international projects.

also weve just submitted our fiscal sponsorship application to NYFA so we can accept donations to hep fund events (specifically geared towards international collaboration) and possibly setting up similar events and workshops elsewhere.

Anyway, sorry to blab, but please contact us if you have any questions!
