 yes! i just received a gift of the TWO DVDs from michael tiemann,

 at a redhat event in delhi.

 here's my idea:

 let's hold a Premiere + P2P Party of 'Elephant's Dream' and follow
 it up with a DVD-burnshare festival!

 what we would require:

 a) a show of hands: so i have a head-count.

Count me in!

[snip]

 7) date and time: whatever is convenient to the majority of people attending.
 if i am not in town, will hand over a copy of the dvds.

As long as the 'extravaganza' takes place before 10th Sept, I'll be
there! I'll be returning to Bangalore after that date.


 so trumpet the cause and spread the word: an elephant is trampling
 into and ilug-d event, and it's not a dream: this is for real.

 ps: how can you be 'eternally' grateful, anupam, unless you know your
 own eternity?

Well eternity need not just mean infinite.. It might be taken to
indicate an unusually large amount of time! So by eternally grateful I
could have just meant that I'll be grateful for a duration of time
considered large by my standards :)

Anupam Jain

2006-08-30 Thread Linux Lingam
i am out-of-town till tuesday, 5th sep.

here's my deal:
1) let's do it once at sudev's den, and once at freedel, and if anyone
wishes to hold 'another premiere + p2p' party, well, chak dey phattey!
go ahead.

obviously.

however, i INSIST, we need a true 5.1 surroundsound dolby pro, or DTS system.

not a couple of auditorium speakers wired together in parallel to
create a 'public amplification' in two-channels.

Another alternative is JNU. Both sound and projectors available.

How about combining it with a Freedel organisational meeting this
Sun.? However, it would have to then be at JNU, about 4pm, as we
have already committed to be there at noon for a BIC workshop
follow-up meeting. If I hear no objections, I will announce the
meeting this evening.

Gora

[ilugd] Does anyone have the content released by the blender orange project?

2006-08-28 Thread Anupam Jain
Hi everyone,

Does anyone have the DVD contents released by the Blender Orange Movie
Project? (http://orange.blender.org/) I just painstakingly downloaded
the smallest version of the movie available (99 MB) and do not have
the bandwidth to download the 2 DVDs with all the content. If anyone
has it or can download it for me please let me know. I'll be eternally
grateful :) The movie is a great example of wonderful things being
done in the open source world and every free software enthusiast esp.
those into CG and animation should see it! It's kinda abstract though!
I am still scratching my head ;)

Regards,
Anupam Jain

DTS. the movie's impact is reduced to near-zero with ordinary speakers
or tv-out. This is high-fidelity sound.

3) a couple of laptops/desktops to handle the DVD-burn  copy.
participants could also inform the list in advance of the number of
copies they need. volunteers in the community could keep those copies
ready, for the appropriate 'sweatware' fee or 'swapfare'-equivalent,
or whatever makes them feel happy for being part of the community. i
am not doing the copying. will provide the dvd for the isos.

4) an appropriate venue for the event.

5) preferred: if someone could hike along with a small microwave.
participants interested could then buy some packets of microwave
popcorn, and bottles of soft-drinks and fruit juice

6) kishore bhargava: he who is adept at gouging attendees for
voluntary donations to the ILUG-D kitty.

7) date and time: whatever is convenient to the majority of people attending.
if i am not in town, will hand over a copy of the dvds.

As above in Faridabad :-)
