Hi, Apologies for the crossposting, I won't make a habit of this. We're organising a User-oriented Free Audio Visual Event to be held in Bristol, UK on August 13th 2005. This is the first event of its kind, so there's all to play for. If you would like to be involved, now would be a really good time to get in touch. ;-) The plan so far: _______________________________________ FAVE 2005 Open source creativity Call for Presentations, Workshops and Artists FAVE is a get-together for creative people who are interested in free and open source software on Linux and other computer platforms. It's taking place on Saturday August 13th 2005 at the Trinity Community & Arts Centre in Bristol, UK. Everyone is welcome, especially if you've never used this kind of software before. This is no dry, dull conference! It will be an accessible festival of fun with performances, installations and workshops. Topics will include: * Music production * Sound recording * Community radio and media * Video art and VJ's * 2D and 3D graphics * Game design * Creative Commons licensing * Software in the Welsh language There will also be an evening gig featuring performances from artists who use Linux and free software. The Trinity Centre is a large converted church, and a legendary music venue. It features a main stage area, room for stalls, a cafe, bar and kids' corner. If you would like to make a presentation, hold a workshop, or perform at this event, please contact the organisers via this address: fave2005@xxxxxxxxxxx or via our website: http://www.fave.org.uk _______________________________________ cheers! tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk
