thanks luis ( :

at some point those pics he slengpunged will be up too . . .
1) apparently kb's presentation at GAMBIT is public. Yay.
If you're near Boston, MA, USA

Friday, 10/14 Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Game Lab
4pm, 5 Cambridge Center, Cambridge
http://gambit.mit.edu/

2) For one week only: preregistration!

@party registration will open in early spring 2012.

But if you preregister during the week of Tammo “kb” Hinrich’s Boston tour (October 8th-15th), we’ll save you a spot, let you know first when registration opens, and offer you a special ‘early bird’ ticket price.

Our 2012 event will take place in a transit-accessible venue in the Boston area.

to be explicit, the Executable Music compo came about from me saying to Dr Claw "I want to have a compo like the 'Experimental music from very short C programs' thread!"

hint hint hint.

saying no more.
There's going to be old school pixel gfx compo???
What's the maximum resolution and is it 32 color?

ASCII, ANSI will be in the same category with pixel?
Maybe there should be separate ASCII/ANSI compo?
added on the 2011-11-08 19:54:04 by Forcer Forcer
when you say Film/Video do you mean that you actually can show entries from film? just checking... :)
added on the 2011-11-08 20:42:12 by nosfe nosfe
nosfe,
It means you can film your own movie or make your own anim and
release it at @party :)
added on the 2011-11-08 21:20:53 by Forcer Forcer
nosfe, I guess, if you're asking that question for the reason I think you are, you might have to go recursive, and set up a digital camera to capture what you were doing with the film ;)

re Forcer

oldskool gfx - YES!
resolution - I believe 32 color, I need to ask my compos head.
ASCII/ANSI is combined with it because we don't feel we could get enough ASCII/ANSI entries on their own. *sigh*

re nosfe

Yes, we said film on purpose. We have access to a 16mm (I think it was 16, I should doublecheck and post the info) and given enough notice we could possibly get others.
I'll try to make freestyle, pixel and maybe anim for @.
I think pixel will be ether 32 or 256 colors or maybe
both will be allowed. It would be nice if there was logo compo
or vector gfx compo at @.
added on the 2011-11-09 19:26:13 by Forcer Forcer
you can do logo or vector graphics in the freestyle graphics compo
nah, I want to make something else for the freestyle gfx compo ;)
added on the 2011-11-10 00:27:25 by Forcer Forcer
Well, you could make an executable graphic that is a logo or vector. ( :
Will @party 2012 be a dry party??? I guess it all depends on the venue?
added on the 2011-11-10 20:45:24 by Forcer Forcer
depends on venue. But because it will be in the city, I am going to see about renting out part of a club or a bar for a private party friday or saturday night.
I'll need to raise some money to help cover that separate from the party, but I'm sure something can be worked out. : )
If the party place is close to some bars or clubs, it shouldn't be a problem with drinking one or 2 shoots before the compos since it will be in Boston ;)
Why you want to rent part of a club if people can go there anyway to get some drinks etc.
Are you thinking about drinking compo or something? That would be fun!
added on the 2011-11-10 21:07:07 by Forcer Forcer
I was thinking about having concerts at the club potentially instead of in the venue.
