Thought this might be of interest to you cause he mentions
"anything to do with multimedia development" - ie, maybe video & video
editing? Isn't there some python based video editor?

Did either of yo know about this event? Ever been to one of their
meetings? If yes, what it anything of interest to yous?

=====
PS: Join the buug.org mailing list for the Berkeley Installfest Talks
Potluck, July 5 Saturday.

=====
PPS: I invite you both to come give a talk - could be an informal 5
minute mini talk, or a 15m-1hr talk.

Possible talks:
Daniel: kernel walkthrough, video sw development, webcam sw, video
streaming.
Christian: your work with the middle school, DTP, or showing off
GNU/Linux to the govt officials or nonprofits.

My goal is to video stream talks to other simultaneous lug meetings, so
this could be an Americas wide audience, & a great way to reach out to
people in other areas & share with them local gnuy/linux social
development methods.

If you think you might like to do a talk, email the buug list with a
message with subject of "ProgLangTalkPosbility Interest??" plus the
subject(s) of your talk.  See this thread for details, starting aat
section "4)":

Maybe I'll go to this meeting & ask them about sw for video streaming
which we could use at BITP & Americas' ITP.

       Francisco

Hi All,
just writing to say that this months PyGameSF meet up is on Monday
June 16th from 7pm at the Metreon food court in San Francisco. This
month's presentations are:

- Tim Thompson (http://nosuch.com/tjt/index.html) "Artistic Mashups
with Python and VST/Freeframe Plugins."   This talk will discuss the
use of Python with audio and video plugin technology in several art
installations.  Radio Free Quasar was an installation that used Python
as a VST host, chaining VST plugins to mangle audio.  Finger Painting
with Planets is an installation that uses Python to simulate gravity
and draw graphics from within a chain of Freeframe plugins that mangle
video.

- Andrew Turley "Building Digital Instruments with Pure Data". This
talk will discuss how to use Pure Data to get input via your PC/Mac
from strange input devices like guitar hero controllers.

PyGame SF is an informal group meet up in San Francisco for Software
engineers interested in python, OpenGL, audio, pygame, SDL,
programming and generally anything to do with multimedia development.
The format of our meetings typically involve several people giving
presentations on projects they are developing followed by
group discussion and feedback. 

If anyone else would like to give a micro presentation, show demos or
just talk about what they are doing or generally give examples of any
relevant software they are working on please feel free to head along.
