Portland 3D Printing Lab

In March 64 Layer Geeks explored the many options for 3D scanning and got to see large format industrial prints. We kicked off with a high-level overview of what 3D printing is and how it's used. Next, people had a minute to shout out about their projects. Mortuary applications for 3D printing- unforgettable! Then, we took a look at updates in the industry and talked about how we, as a community, can work together. Next, Skylr of 3Digitize.us scanned a slice of pizza and showed us the many ways to do it. Next, Alex of ProtoPlant regaled us with stories of printing on industrial machines, showing us actual large-format prints as well as finely detailed chainmail.
In April, we'll take a look at how 3D printing is literally changing lives by giving people back the use of their limbs.
Agenda follows: 0600p : 3D printing for Beginners (optional for pros!)
0630p : Networking over light food/beverages
0730p : Intro
0740p : Community Time - 2 minutes to ask a question or show off your project
0750p : Ivan Owen - co-creator of the original 3D printed hand prosthetic and supporter of the e-NABLE project
0830p : More Networking! Note 1: If you'd like to bring a printer, please contact the group organizer, so we can set aside table space.
Note 2: If you have a project or business you'd like to talk about, please contact the group organizer by private message. We're looking for 15-20 minute presentations. Slides aren't necessary, but we have access to a projector and plenty of table space. Good examples would be demonstrations of a new technique/tool, an overview of a service you provide, a unique project you've modeled/printed, etc. If you know a great speaker, please refer them! Please share this with your network and bring your imagination and enthusiasm. |

Portland JavaScript Admirers' Lightning Talks
Roll back
| description |
The monthly meeting of Portland's first JavaScript and ECMAscript users' group. We host presentations and discussions on everything JavaScript-related - including JavaScript frameworks, node.js, CoffeeScript, and whatever else comes up.
This is the meeting where we will have LIGHTNING TALKS!
I encourage everyone to give a talk—especially anyone who has not given a talk at a user group meeting before. This is a great opportunity to practice speaking with a bite-size time slot. I (Jesse) have found that giving presentations is a good way to get name/face recognition, which has opened a lot of doors for me. And this will be a context where there will be other people speaking who have also not given a talk before.
Talks will be 5 minute presentations, with or without slides or other visual aids of your choosing. Choose any topic that interests you—so long as it is safe-for-work.
If you would like to give a talk, send an email to Jesse Hallett to be added to the list. If you are going to use slides please send a copy to the same address so that we can have everybody's presentations ready to go on one computer. Sign up first and send the slides later if you need time to make the slides. Slots will be first-come, first-served. We have time for 12–14 presentations.
I wanted to include some tips for anyone who has not given a lightning talk before:
- Practice! Do your talk out loud a few times in front a friend, mirror, an empty room, or whatever. Time yourself while practicing. You will feel silly doing this. But it is the only way to make sure that you are prepared to get the most use out of your five minutes. That is a very short time slot. Practicing will help you to focus on important points, and will help you to avoid points that you might otherwise stumble over.
- Speak slowly, and take pauses while you are speaking. When I am in front of a room full of people, I have a tendency to worry that I am wasting a lot of people's time, which makes me want to rush and to talk too fast. I think that this is a common reaction. You can give a better talk by resisting the temptation to hurry. Pausing between points, or when you need a moment to collect your thoughts, will give your audience opportunity to digest your points. Remember that a pause that feels long and awkward to you probably does not feel that way to your audience.
- If you use slides, my suggestion is to use at most 10 slides. That is one slide for every 30 seconds of speaking time. Your slide count is one way to estimate whether you are trying to fit in too much material for the given time.
- It is preferable to cover one point well than to go over five points hastily. Think about what the core point of your talk is, and how much you can take out while still conveying that point.
- Have some water handy—public speaking tends to lead to cottonmouth.
Feel free to join our mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/pdxjs if you too are a JavaScript admirer. Or visit our web site for more information at http://pdxjs.com/.
If you're interested in making a presentation at this or at a future meet-up, please e-mail and Jesse Hallett ([email protected]). |

The Burst is a rather unique spin the bottle between Portland’s top Illustrators and Motion Designers. We’re giving teams an entire week to collaborate and show Portland what they are made of.
Each randomly paired up team (1 Illustrator and 1 Motion Designer) has exactly 1 week to put their heads together to design and animate a 15-30 second masterpiece. We reveal the theme and then cut everyone loose. After a week we get together and throw a big party in their honor. Join us for that party and see what happens when you pair up random creatives.
Seating is limited so RSVP today |

"No talks. One paper per month, no obligation to read it."
This month's paper is [Profiler: Integrated Statistical Analysis and
Visualization for Data Quality Assessment](http://vis.stanford.edu/files/2012-Profiler-AVI.pdf) by Kandel et al. Read it or don't - the goal is just to have something to start conversations. "Did you read the paper?" will do nicely.
Mention @PDXBigData on Twitter with the link to the full paper to suggest papers for future sessions. |

Class starts May 12th, but you can get previews of the lectures early. The class is free and so is getting help with homework though our workgroup.
The group is very informal and so feel free to show up early or late and leave early or late, as suits your schedule.
We will meet near the power outlets by the clear glass windows. Look for the orange backpack to find us.

Portland Linux/Unix Group Advanced Topics Meeting Announcement
Who: Hopefully Ted Mittelstaedt
What: Heartbleed: It's cause, the solution, lessons learned
Where: Free Geek, 1731 SE 10th Avenue, Portland (Left Entrance)
When: Tuesday, April 15th, 2014 at 7pm
Why: The pursuit of technology freedom
The "Heartbleed" OpenSSL bug potentially impacts everyone who has used the Internet but was simple enough to explain in an XKCD cartoon.
http://xkcd.com/1354/
Ted Mittelstaedt will hopefully enlighten us about it and the issues surrounding it. Should he not be able to attend, we can have a roundtable discussion and we certainly all have something to contribute.
Many will head to the Lucky Lab on Hawthorne after the meeting.
See you there! |
