Hi all,
I am currently putting together an IxDA group in Bogotá, Colombia, I'm
sure there are people on this list who would be interested in joining
such a group, so please shout out loud, and let's start it up!!!!
I'm offering support from Universidad de los Andes, and our lectures'
cycle: Presencias del Diseño, where we strive to bring diversity to our
university, and where we discuss design from several points of view.
Amongst others, we have had:
-Swedish Seeds: Sweden Designs for Children, cosponsored with the
Swedish Embassy.
-Laura Niño: from Strategic Futures @ Design Department, Philips Design,
Eindhoven.
-For Internacional Letra Menuda: A one day discussion about copyrights,
with local government participants, designers, lawyers, with lecturers
from Mexico, Argentina & Chile.
-Ola Rune, Architect, Designer (and quite funny I must say). From
Claesso, Koivisto, Rune Architecture Office, Sweden.
-Graphics go Big: with our local designers Lucho Correa & Carlos Duque.
-Nathan Shedroff: talking about design future.
-Étienne Mineur: Interactive design from France.
Check out our lectures' blog (in spanish) for more info:

We also host the Wiring project, a Processing sibling, lead by Hernando
Barragán: http://www.wiring.org.co/ and several other interactive
related activities.
So join us, and let's work together.
To all those non-colombians: if this seems like an interesting place for
you to come, drop me a line, and we'll work it out, we'd be thrilled to
have you here, and learn from you.
