That is a real nice looking display.

@TD's request for a kel photo. I'm sure that TD is referring to a photo that doesn't show you in a costume either kel

If anyone has a laptop/s and any of the lighting software installed and doesn't mind doing a hands on demo at anytime during the day/s I reckon that it'd be a good thing. The more there the merrier. I should be there on the Saturday at least and I've got LOR, LSP and Vixen installed. I will also have a dongle and lights so it will be possible to sequence and output to the lights.

So from a quick look so far we have 14 members confirmed and several more possibles so it should be a great weekend. later today will have list of probable topics. Some hands on work as well as discussions and presentations. Demo of some nice new tools like 3D printers and small laser cutters also so if you have some stuff you want to make on these then bring it along and give it a try.

Prizes list is growing nicely as well.

This is a wonderful chance to meet other members and and share ideas and know how with each other.

Allways a lot of fun

For the ajenda can I suggest a more in depth look at LSP maybe get someone to run through different ways of sequencing and as Pixels now seem to be the standard maybe some set up methodology.
I've heard about this guy who is "a world renowned user of LSP" and he travels around the world teaching classes, giving demos, etc.
Maybe you should try to contact him. :D
