Overlap SF Salon Wed, Feb 4
If you will be in and/or around SF this Wednesday, make sure to come out to the next Overlap Salon. Barry is taking over it and it will be stellar. I will be there with bells on. If you want to meet up, that is a great night to talk about all things under the sun (and those esp. related to sound culture).

Wednesday night Feb 4th, 2009 from 7-9 pm @ Sound Arts Recording Studio 520 Hampshire street, suite #206 SF, CA 94110
We are revitalizing the Overlap Salon series with a new event on Feb 4. I’m taking over the reigns, and we are planning what promises to be a a very worthwhile series for users of Cycling 74’s powerful New Media creation software Max/MSP/Jitter to share their projects, help overcome problems, and learn new patching techniques. Everyone is welcome regardless of previous experience, and we will try to cater to all skill levels.
Our salons will be a mix of presentations and ad-hoc discussion, dependent upon what kinds of patches and issues are brought to the table. I will be discussing preset storage using the pattr system; one of the most powerful and perhaps least understood of Max’s object sets. We’ll cover some tips and tricks for integrating preset communication into your patches as unobtrusively as possible.
What is great about Barry running these, is that he is a very knowledgeable and thorough guy. And, anything generated during the night will be posted to Overlap.org.
Although, I’m not as involved as in the past with Overlap, I can tell you that there is some great new energy and works about to be released by the project and with a regular interval.
