electronics
Nick, Sue and I were at Communica in Mooi St today looking for components for our installations. They really just sell the diodes and jimjams, so for Sue's lie detector and Nick and my Infra-red sensors, we will have to return with plans for them to make up, but it wont be cheap. There is a nice little shop round the corner as well (M Electronics) where the guy seems to specialise in security sensors. For wireless headphones they told us to try Giddy's or Hi Fi Corporation.

So we have to motivate for the extra week of preparation, but apart from that, we have the Substation 17th Jan - 11 Feb, to open on Saturday 5 Feb at 6pm. Check w. Christo if it is ok for External to view at 3pm. Christo also has to request if we want the Nunnery as well. The Amphitheatre and Downstairs Theatre are booked for dance from 14Feb, so it would be v difficult to arrange, but not impossible. Check out the Nunnery, it is perfect afaic. The Art School has a mailing list which they post to if we give them the info. Also we need to get a post onto the Wits events.net (ivor@alumni).

I'm in! Nick has been sending the Max patch text attachments, but I have had problems getting them to open. Does anyone know how to make them work. Otherwise we must just have a Max Patches folder in the Shared folder in the Users folder on Espeon. Franci has expressed interest in playing - when she gets back from Norway! Nick, Mitch and I will be working 5-7pm on Wednesdays in the Lab. If we survive the pillowfight.
how this works
Hey everybody (and for those readers who may be listening at some time in the future):
It's nathaniel, blog king. Most of you should have been 'invited' to join this blog (if not, the administrator, meaning nick, should do this; nick, invite yourself, too, so your posts have your own name). Click the link in the email invite to join under your own blogger account (or, if you don't have one, make one). This way, when you post, it signs it under your name, as mine is below.
Nick can make as many people as he wants 'administrators' - if you want to be able to change the template, invite others to join, or edit other people's posts, ask nick to do this for you. Nick, I'd like to get the xml feed for this blog; can you add it to the template? If you don't know how, make me an administrator, and email me that you did so, and I'll take care of it. You should also change the date stamp to our own country / time zone in the blog settings!
You should each post your original concepts, changes as they happen, tech research, summations of chats about your projects, whatever. Posts lots + often, and comment on each other!
