    Default W00t! I’m going to Scottsdale AZ in November

    Greetings, all;

    Now that the contract has been signed, I can publicize my upcoming art piece at Scottsdale’s Canal Convergence festival of light:

    https://canalconvergence.com/public-...leri-so-laser/
    (The rest of their site hasn’t been updated yet)

    This is a juried art fest that I got into; a week of doing interactive lumia on the pylons of the Soleri bridge this November. My canvas:

    As you can see from the mock-up, I will be developing vertical linear lumia for this, modifying the projectors I built for Lasing Nang Talung last summer. These will be controlled by the interactive lunchbox controllers we have been using at gigs for the last couple of years:

    The one downside is that this is the same time as the ILDA conference this year, so I will miss that.

    Looks like I will also be doing my lecture/demo Talking With Lasers in a local STEM high school:

    Karl Rothweiler will be partnering me with for scaffolding and safety issues.
    Thanks, Karl!!

    If you’re in the Scottsdale/Phoenix are in November, please drop by and check it out.

    Cheers…Mike

    Congrats, Mike! Very cool!

    I live in Gilbert, just a 20 minute drive from Scottsdale (and am originally from Roseville MI, back when there were still cornfields on 13 Mile Road)

    When will you actually be at the installation, so I can try to come by and say hi in person?

    I'll be there too. We should consider a miniLEM to coincide, amongst the old lasers here in Mesa.

    MiniLEM sounds fun. AZ is close enough to tote along my fogscreen.
    If you're the smartest person in the room, then you're in the wrong room.

    Default Mini LEM in Phoenix/Scottsdale

    Hi guys;

    Counting down to showtime; doing final testing and tweaking of my linear laser lumia projectors (Lumiators).

    Heck yeah, let's get together!

    I propose a meet at the Teepee or some other Mexican joint, then a visit to the site in the middle of the week.
    We set up the afternoon/evening of Nov. 5th. I will be a little harried, but delighted to meet y'all.

    And: I may need some help babysitting this. It would be good to have a second pair of hands next to the ol' E-Stop to keep the CDRH happy.
    This would involve showing up and talking to visitors about lasers and lumia, and showing them how to run the lunchboxen - which is a 1-minute training event.

    Any interest?

    Thanks...Mike

    Mike,

    Are you driving or flying?

    Wondering if you could bring back something from Karl for me.

    Ah, bring back to Cleveland?
    You would come to Jackson to pick up?
    How big is it?
    My gear is pretty firmly packed.
