Greetings CLUGers. The next CLUG Meeting is to be held at The St. Albans Neighbourhood Resource Centre. 1047 Columbo Street. St. Albans.
7:30pm - Tuesday 13 June 2006 Programme. Pre-Meeting meal at the Caly. From 6:00pm Two short Talks. ================ Barry will be showing off a photograph display package he has written. It is an interesting implementation using TCL/TK and offers some unique features not available from the more sophisticated projects and commercial products. ================ Volker will be giving us an introductory demonstration of SuSE-10.1 ================ The Elephants Dream. -------------------- Elephants Dream is the world’s first open movie, made entirely with open source graphics software such as Blender, and with all production files freely available to use however you please, under a Creative Commons license. The short film was created by the Orange Open Movie Project studio in Amsterdam during 2005/2006, bringing together a diverse team of artists and developers from all over the world. Duration 11 minutes. Video files of the movie at various resolutions will be available. Full resolution - 1920x1080 - 854,537,054 bytes Intermediate resolution - 720x405 - 126,507,558 bytes It's quite spooky at times and gets the adrenaline moving, so is probably not suitable for toddlers or small children. ================ Bring and Buy or Swap-Meet. --------------------------- A member has indicated that he will be bringing some odds and ends he wishes to dispose of. I thought that other members might like to bring their cast-offs. NOTE: If your e-waste is not desired by other members it is YOUR responsibility to remove it from the meeting venue. ================ There will probably be time for a small scale FixFest, so feel free to bring those recalcitrant machines. ================ There will be Tea or Instant Coffee plus a biscuit available. Entry by $2 ( minumum ) donation. ================ Advanced Notice about July meeting. ----------------------------------- The St. Albans venue is going to be completely redecorated during July, so the July meeting will be in the Shirley Community Centre Hall. South-East Corner of Slater Street and Shirley Road. http://www.zoomin.co.nz/nz/christchurch/richmond/slater+street/ The Programme for this meeting will be Volker giving us an in depth lesson about the processing of Digital Images.
