Melbourne CocoaHeads Meeting

Melbourne CocoaHeads Meeting

Cocoaheads returns for 2008. This month we will be hearing about the following:

- Ruby Cocoa and Core Image via Marcus Crafter
- New features in xCode 3 by Robert Stainsby
- py2app by Bulkan-Savun Evcimen
- The iPhone SDK and what it means for us in Australia from Gareth Townsend

When: Thursday April 10th
Where? RMIT City Campus - Seminar Room 1, Swantston St Library, Building 8, Level 5 - Map (enter the library then walk straight ahead towards two big doors entering into the library's main book collection - the meeting room is on your left with big glass walls and a Cocoaheads sign).
Time: 6pm - 9pm

As always we will be heading over the road to the Bunker afterwards for drinks and socialising.

If my trip to Melbourne is funded by someone, I'm quite willing to attend.

It's a tough nut to crack. What I want to do is get my hands on the following and make it really cool:

Epiphan VGA2USB LR (to capture VGA signal)
Kramer VP-300N Active Splitter (to split VGA signal to projector and capture device)
Shure PG188/PG185 Dual Lavalier Wireless System (to sitck on presenter to capture audio)
Edirol UA-25 (to record audio)
Canon HV-20 HDV camera (to record presenter)

It would cost about $5000, but it would be awesome

Could have a 1280x480 video that has half the presenter and half the computer/VGA capture. Mmm, gear.

Do you guys normally eat there? Like do you order pizzas or something? 6pm-9pm pretty much covers my usual "dinner eating time"!

We don't usually eat there. I would love to get a half time pizza break happening but need to find out the exact rules for eating in that part of the Library. I"m pretty sure it's not allowed.

I usually have a late lunch beforehand and grab something to eat afterwards. It's not ideal I know.

There are of course plenty of places around where you can eat beforehand or afterwards.

Hungry Jacks Bacon Deluxe Stunner I'm looking at you.

Will find out, but not that keen on having food in that room, only because I am responsible for that room and will end up cleaning it up
