I'll bring up the gear to video if people want? Just 1 camera and a GoPro to avoid too much post processing. Be nice if Ben could bring up, or lend me the audio gear

I'd like to do a quick chat on how things have changed over the years since I started

Things I would be keen to see:
- Someone to talk through and demo the ESP based pixel controller
- A demo of Lnsin or similar HDMI controllers
- Adding pixels to wireframes - who has done it well
- I would like Shane to rerun his presentation of the aesthetics of sequencing from last year ... (if only we had managed to get that video online)
- If we have internet access at the venue then I would be happy to ask someone like Gil to talk about DMX and animatronics, or Dave to run through the Falcon and the options (although Daryl could do that as well) or James to talk through his Coro and other items, or Steve G or Clyde on things like presets and layering or Lilia on her sequencing style (although accent can be hard to understand over the phone). These guys have all done remote presentations before and with the right setup it can work.
- I am always keen to hear about what has been going on with Vixen.

When people register if we can get an idea of what sequencer they use and their level of experience that would help ensure we hit the mark with the right topics. Doing beginner topics for an experienced audience does not go over well in my experience.

I am happy to demo anything people want to see in xLights ... although I am not great at beginner presentations and would not be offended if someone wanted to jump into that.
I would also be happy to talk more generally about getting involved in open source projects like xLights
I am also happy to update and recycle my presentation on tools (software and hardware) that make the hobby easier ... I need to add my solder pot after Shanes presentation last year.
I doubt anyone is interested but i could also present arduinos as a controller (AC and pixels) if there is sufficient interest.

xD

mmm... I find the topic interesting but i worry if it's boring, (it might have been a blessing it wasn't online..lol)... happy to lead a discussion if ppl want and i can make it ( 90% sure at this stage, I've been on extended sick leave and my first day back to work is 2 June, rang the boss, Hey remember me?, I'm coming back to work but I need that weekend off....lol)...

Cheers
Fing (shane)
