Visual Storytelling & Growing Your Digital Media and Protecting It
Roll back

<p>We'll hear advice from two local experts about how to tell stories using visuals as well as how to manage your organization's digital inventory, legal issues around images, and camera/software tips.</p> <p><b>Growing Your Digital Media and Protecting It</b></p> <p>While being the first-ever Executive Communications Manager for a national child welfare nonprofit, Kristy Alberty hit the ground running to learn brand management and to better develop the organization's strategy to use photographs to tell their story. She is now a firm believer in encouraging nonprofit organizations to create and maintain a digital photo library to call their own for communications, development, print, and online usage. </p> <p>Her presentation will cover different facets of this concept: First, why should I care about this, followed by some digital photography basics, sources of photographs, organizing your digital library, how to organize a photo shoot, tips to obtain photos on an ongoing basis, and basic legal issues to remember. </p> <p><b>Visual Storytelling</b></p> <p>Social media is visual media. Research confirms what many Tech4Good folks know from experience: photos are the quickest way to get views, likes, and shares on Facebook. But our supporters' screens are littered with photos from friends, families, and causes they care about. There are 55 million pictures uploaded to Instagram every day! How can we make sure ours stand out? Resource Media pored over cognitive research and interviewed some of the smartest nonprofit and corporate markets we know to compile a list of visual communications best practices. I'll share the top take-aways from our research, and ideas for testing images with your own community. For a sneak peek at what I'll be covering, check out <a href="http://www.visualstorylab.org/">www.visualstorylab.org</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p><b>Presenters</b></p> <p>Born and raised in Oklahoma, <b>Kristy Alberty</b> (BA in News Communication) has been a freelance writer, prepress designer, and recent, was the first Executive Communications Manager for the National Indian Child Welfare Association (NICWA), headquartered in Portland, from 2005 to 2012. She is currently looking for another exciting nonprofit adventure to continue her communications, and brand management skills.</p> <p><br><b>Nicole Lampe</b> has worked in nonprofit communications for over a decade, on issues ranging from education to conservation and public health. She started her career in the days of the fax machine, but is now as likely to pitch a reporter on Twitter as by phone. As head of digital at Resource Media—a nonprofit PR firm that helps good causes win—Nicole's work ranges from hyper local campaigns to international work with UNESCO. </p> <p><br><b><br></b></p> <p><b>Venue Sponsor</b></p> <p><img src="http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/9/f/f/8/600_266260952.jpeg"></p> <p>"At <a href="http://thinkshout.com/">ThinkShout</a>, we are more than the code we write. We may be geeks, but we're geeks with lots of heart and we are committed to producing sustainable, open source solutions for people who are making lasting social change." </p> <p><br><b><br></b></p> <p><b>Agenda</b></p> <p>Networking and refreshments 6pm-6:30pm</p> <p>Presentation 6:30pm-7:45pm</p> <p>Additional Q&A and networking 7:45pm-8pm</p> <p> </p> <p><b>Accessibility</b></p> <p><b>Mobility Access: </b>The main entrance on Glisan opens right into the ThinkShout office and there is one step. However, there's a side entrance on 4th that is wheelchair accessible. If using that entrance, dial 001 on the keypad to be buzzed in.</p> <p><b>Hearing Access: </b>We will not have access to a PA system.</p> <p><b>Sight Access:</b> We will use either a large monitor or a projector for presentations.</p> <p>We want everyone to be able to participate in the PDXTech4Good community and events. Please don't hesitate to let us know what we can do to accommodate your needs.</p> <p><b><br></b></p> <p><b>Parking & Transportation</b></p> <p>There's a large paid parking lot next to ThinkShout on 4th and Glisan as well as another across the street. There's also lots of street parking.</p> <p>ThinkShout is close to the MAX, streetcar, and several bus lines.</p> |

Introduction to Pure Data (Pd)
Roll back

An Introduction to Pure Data
DorkbotPDX is happy to offer a free workshop as an introduction to Pure Data (Pd).
When: February 23rd, 2014. 1-5pm
Where: Flux 412 NW Couch Street, #222 (map)
Instructors: Jesse Mejia, Alex Norman, Jason Plumb, Edward Sharp
Details:
Pure Data (Pd) is a free, open-source, community supported data flow language and coding environment with an emphasis on sound, music, and multimedia. It was originally written by Miller Puckette (also the original author of Max/Max MSP) and runs on Linux, Mac OSX, and Windows.
Pd has been used widely in the creation of art -- such as music, sound art, visual art, generative, new-media, and interactive art. Pd interfaces readily with MIDI equipment and many popular microcontrollers.
In this 4-hour course, students will learn the basics of Pd and will have fun developing foundational Pd patching skills.
A link to the curriculum will be posted here very soon.
Beginners are welcome. No prior computer programming or sound programming experience is required!
Notes:
Students should attempt to install Pd prior to the workshop...but if not, no biggie. We can help with that!
Seating is limited to 15 participants.
Attendees will respect Flux's code of conduct and will be asked to donate. |

Hack The People PDX
Roll back

We are a group of makers, hackers, coders, programmers, and technologists that want to contribute to the tech community by providing a place to learn from others.
Our meetups are intimate events designed to help create relationships between junior and senior people in various tech fields. Hack The People is looking for both mentees and mentors to attend our events. The events will focus around lightning talks about your pet projects.
Lightning talks, you ask?
Yes, each participant gets about 2 minutes to talk about anything they're working on, problems they've come across, or even just seedling ideas in their head, with an additional 4 minutes of time for people in the group to offer assistance in the form of new insights, perspectives, solutions, or anything else they can offer(please note that we don't allow soliciting/buy-my-app type of talks). It's like having a whole group of mentors to listen to what you have to say with an aim to help.
After the lightning talks round, we will head across the way to Bailey's to have a drink and chat a little less formally.
Please be punctual as we start on time and move through each portion with a minimum of dilly-dallying.
Here is what you can expect at this meetup:
- Refreshments/Pizza
- Keynote speaker
- Lightning Talks
- Drinks/Networking @ Bailiey's
This event has a limited number of seats, so don't miss out and make sure to reserve your spot!

Rentrak Hackathon
Roll back

→ |
The Rentrak Hackathon is a gathering of laptops and laughter. Classically, we all sit in a square and type words onto a keyboard that then get turned into a "computerized program". It's a good chance to work on your personal projects, learn what your peers are up to (computer-wise), figure out what the best programming language is, and/or say the words "I don't have anything to work on" or "I forgot my laptop". This event is very informal, and there is no specific project we'll be focusing our efforts on.
Food and refreshments are served. RSVPing to [email protected] is appreciated, but not required.
Come check out Rentrak's new downtown office. Everyone is welcome to join us! |

From UX to Architecture to Photography to Creative Writing, the design of information requires processes to create the ideal outcome for something that did not exist before.
Meet fellow practitioners, get a better understanding of what others do and how you can use that knowledge to make what you do even better.
Our lineup starts at 9a and ending at 6p, with one hour break for lunch. Come to one, a few or all! Your ticket price is good for the day, so you can come and go as you please.
9: Kate Ertmann-Owner and Animation Process Expert at Animation Dynamics
10: Craig Peters-CEO, Awasu Design San Francisco
11: Josh Romberg-Photographer and Visual Designer
LUNCH
1p: Corey Pressman-Owner and Chief Strategist at Exprima Media

Hello Drone Enthusiasts!
Our next meetup is scheduled for Wednesday, February 5th, from 6pm to 8pm. We have a private room booked at Lucky Labrador Brew Pub on SE Hawthorne, courtesy of ATI.
We have a pretty exciting announcement to discuss, Drone Prize. We think it will bring national attention to Portland’s Drone scene. We’re holding a joint meeting with our sister club – Silicon Sky. Local media will also be present to cover the announcement – so dress sharp!
While we won’t be flying – bring out your flying machines for show and tell and to trade tips and tricks with Portland’s drone experts.
See you there! |

Be Your Own Brand Evangelist: adventures in DIY branding and target audience definition

Anvil Media Lunch & Learn
Join Alicia Nagel from <a href="http://www.alicianagel.com/">Alicia Nagel Creative</a> for a seminar on branding and audiences on February 12.
You might think that your target audience is “everyone”, but marketing to everyone often leads to generic messaging that goes unnoticed. Instead, show a little personality! Embrace your core values and let your passion shine through. By defining your brand and identifying your target audience(s) you can connect with your customers. When you understand your customer, you can anticipate their decision-making process and ace their evaluation of your product or service. Customers who forge a bond with your brand spread the word about your company’s awesomeness and become brand evangelists. Seminar attendees will learn how to define their brand, define their target audience(s), anticipate their audience’s decision making process, and foster brand evangelists for their company. Presentation will be followed by a brief Q&A.
Read <a href="http://www.alicianagel.com/5-stages-getting-know-audience/">The 5 Stages of Getting To Know Your Audience</a> for a taste of some of the topics which will be covered.
The presentation will be an educational Lunch & Learn event from Noon to 1 p.m. at the Anvil office. Food and beverages will be provided. Register now to save your seat!
**Cost:** Free

New location: Ford Food & Drink! Since Side Door is closing early starting Feb, we are moving to Ford!
<hr>
Come hang out and write code in a quiet, less crowded environment with your fellow nerds.
The meetings are extremely informal, and everyone is welcome!
The place is smaller, so finding the nerd herd shouldn't be too difficult. |

Learn Algorithms, Part I, on Coursera - Study Group - First Meeting
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
My name is John, and I'm hoping to form a study group to learn Algorithms, Part I, on Coursera: https://www.coursera.org/course/algs4partI
Coursera will be teaching a class on Algorithms, opening on January 31st. As anyone in the software engineering industry knows, learning algorithms is crucial to becoming a strong developer. Most major tech companies force applicants to go through rounds of algorithmic design questions in their interviews.
Email me at [email protected] or text/call at 501 655 2961. Location TBA, based on what's convenient for all of us.
DESCRIPTION FROM COURSERA:
About the Course
An introduction to fundamental data types, algorithms, and data structures, with emphasis on applications and scientific performance analysis of Java implementations. Specific topics covered include: union-find algorithms; basic iterable data types (stack, queues, and bags); sorting algorithms (quicksort, mergesort, heapsort) and applications; priority queues; binary search trees; red-black trees; hash tables; and symbol-table applications.
Recommended Background
All you need is a basic familiarity with programming in Java. This course is primarily aimed at first- and second-year undergraduates interested in engineering or science, along with high school students and professionals with an interest (and some background) in programming.

A lot has changed with the tools and methods for web-based and mobile development. Affordable cloud hosting and full stack development solutions exist in great numbers. But what is the real benefit? Can using these new tools help build better software, faster? Or is it just for toy apps? Join the TAO Developer Forum as developers build a responsive web-based application using some of the newest technologies available (AngularJS, RESTful services, Firebase, Xcode, JetBrains, AppCode, JetBrains WebStorm, Android Studio, Objective-C, Java, Cloud providers, JIRA, GitHub and so on).
The event will start with the audience selecting the application that will be built, and will lend with a Q&A session. If you're looking to learn about the latest technology trends in web and mobile development, this is the event to be at.
