Please sort out your media for this. Transferring between presentations often takes as much time as the presentations themselves, so PLEASE bring in everything you want to show — on a memory stick, on the network or on your own laptop. We’ll decide the running order in the morning.
Also, Wednesday morning – please ALL to attend the guest presentation by Pete van Lanschot.

MID TERM CRITS
To last 5-10 minutes each, including questions. So please be brief, and clear. Make sure you get across the overall idea, how you are approaching it, what you’ve done so far (context/research and practical), any specific problems you have encountered (though don’t dwell on this for too long!) and what you hope/think the final piece will be.
You’re not marked on this, but it is an excellent opportunity for you to run your ideas past your peers and get reactions, ideas and viewpoints you may not have previously considered.
Wednesday 12th November
Pete van Lanschot, an ex-student of this course and also MA Design for Interactive Media at London College of Computing will present his piece Dominotes, built in Flash, using Fiducial Tracking and recently exhibited at Flash on the Beach. The presentation/workshop starts at 10.30 – please ALL be there for this!
Cheers
Ant
I am assuming all is going well with your projects, as only two people came in this morning.
A few notices:
Learning agreements.
Some excellent ones, some need a tweak, and several are missing. The following have not handed in a hard copy of their learning agreement. This was meant to have been finished at least a week ago. We need these in by the end of this week please, or warning letters may be sent!
Craig
Jonathan
Adam
Francis
Joe

Next week.
We’re expecting you to have done a substantial amount of actual development on your project by now, so please be prepared to bring this in to show us. Also, please note that tutorials will take place in Ant’s office on this day, as the base room is needed for an open day (please don’t go in there between 11.15 –12.30 and 2.15 – 3.30). This is a one-off, ususally you have free access to the room.

The following week (4/5 NOVEMBER), Bob will be in instead of me (Ant), so please make good use of him!
MID TERM CRITS will therefore take place on TUESDAY 11th NOVEMBER, and everyone needs to be in all day for that.

Harry and Co have offered to do a show and tell on their 3D-VJ operations of this coming weekend. Their presentation will start at 2pm on Tuesday 14th October. Please, ALL to attend this.
Additionally, everyone MUST hand in a learning agreement, and have it agreed by me and/or Bob by end of play on Wednesday. I am in all day Tuesday, and Wednesday morning. If you are in any doubt about the learning agreement, or having problems defining your project, PLEASE do come and see me before it’s too late!
