'twould be nice.  I'm in Santa Barbara but come down to LA when
there's good stuff happening.  The only thing similar I know of in LA
is the LA-VA/Share meetings: http://flow.la-va.org/ .

Wes - you should def. check out the Share scene if you havent (and so 

I learnt of Max/MSP/Jitter there, and got much help from Josh 

Goldberg many years ago when first starting out, and was lucky enough 

to meet a few other Max Devs in passing. Its a really open, nice 

scene, and discussing software design, techniques etc is def. more 

I often go to share ny just to code and get some ideas, and not to jam.

Since you're at CalArts, you may have heard about Machine Project in

wierd place where some MMJ stuff happens. I belive the monome guys

will be in residence there this spring giving workshops and

...thinking to check out the next share la in march.

Since you're at CalArts, you may have heard about Machine Project in
Echo Park (http://machineproject.com/), but if not it's an excellently
wierd place where some MMJ stuff happens.  I belive the monome guys
will be in residence there this spring giving workshops and
performances.

wow... I'm glad I asked. Lots of good stuff going on around here. I'll have to look into all of it.

 have been having meetings at Machine Project gallery recently so it's very possible that Machine would be interested in and available to host such a thing. The Monome guys will indeed be there again this spring but their workshops cost money and are (this time) aimed specifically at getting new Max users up and running...however they do really great work and I'm certain their workshops will be worth the price of admission.

In the mean time, share la looks like a fun thing, thanks for the heads up all - I'd not heard of that.

The SoCal Dorkbot crew (http://dorkbot.org/dorkbotsocal/) have been having meetings at Machine Project gallery recently so it's very possible that Machine would be interested in and available to host such a thing.

I agree - the Share event does look interesting, and I had never heard of it either. Have they announced a date for the March event yet? I'm hoping to attend - maybe I can run into some of the LA Maxers out there. Could be fun...
