dorkbotnyc
people doing strange things with electricity
what:
dorkbotnyc is a monthly meeting of artists
(sound/image/movement/whatever), designers, engineers, students and
other interested parties from the new york area who are involved in the
creation of electronic art (in the broadest
sense of the term.)
the purpose of dorkbotnyc is to:
give artists/programmers/engineers an opportunity for
informal peer review
establish a forum for the presentation of new
technology/software/hardware/art works
help establish relationships and foster collaboration
between people with various backgrounds and interests
give us all a chance to see the cool things that our
neighbors are working on
imaginary presentation topics:
a demo of your new motion tracking software
showing off your home-built analog synth
an explanation of how you hacked your game boy to get it to
make cool bleeping noises
trouble shooting/brainstorming your remote-controlled
sandwich making robot
bringing in some dancers you're working with and having them
demonstrate the interface used in your new
mind-control ballet
demos of commercial software are probably not appropriate, unless you
wrote the software or you are making it do
something particularly novel or interesting.
dorkbotnyc meetings are free and open to the public. space at some
events
may be limited, so you are encouraged to
rsvp to help us make adequate arrangements for each event. rsvp at:
dorkbotnyc_AT_music.columbia.edu
