Why\, it's "\; a membership-based DIY workshop that gives you access to a huge variety of tools and equipment\, tons of friendly and easy classes\, and a commu nity of amazing people who share your interest in making things."\;\ n \n Sounds like fun. Pack your safety goggles for this one\, just in case you get the urge to weld something.\n \n No word yet on whether Todd will organize another party train. Stay tuned.\n \n Lunch 2.0 is a Valley phenomenon that you can read about at lu nch20.com \, and we're putting a PDX stamp on it.\n \n You can follow all things Portland Lunch 2.0 an the Silicon Florist .\n \n Are you vegan or vegetarian?

This is a focused workshop on fabrication that will take three designs and follow them al l the way to physical circuit boards using commonly available chemicals and the freeware version of Eagle PCB design (download). \;\n \;\n You should bring a laptop and any small designs you are working on. You will leave with enough materials to etch your own circuit boards\, with the exception of chemicals that you can buy from any hardware store. \;\n \;\nSunday June 14\, 1-5pm \;\nTechshop Electronics Lab \; \n$35 (includes materials) \;\nRSVP and pay at http://tempusdictum.co m/tdproducts.html (Workshop: Fabrication 31MAY09 Techshop) \;\nIf you have any questions\, email Don Davis - don@tempusdictum.com\n\nTags: ma ke\, electronics\, dorkbot\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events /1250457273 URL:http://opentechspace.org/2009/05/27/fabrication-workshop-june-14/ SUMMARY:PC Board Fabrication Workshop LOCATION:TechShop Portland [closed]: 10100 SW Allen Blvd\, Beaverton Oreg on 97005 United States SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090528T020717Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090620T150000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090620T120000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090528T020717Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090528T020717Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250457252 DESCRIPTION:Learn to Make Interactive Video with your Mac! \;\n \;\ nFree. \;\nReserve your space on Yahoo Upcoming http://upcoming.yahoo .com/event/2776974/ \;\n \;\nWe are very lucky to have Surya Buchw ald (also known as Momo the Monster) teaching a Quartz Composer workshop . \;\n \;\nQuartz Composer (QC) is a free\, powerful easy-to-use v isual programming language for the Apple Macintosh. This workshop will t ake you from starting the program for the first time to building your ow n Interactive scene controlled with a gamepad. You’ll learn how to teach yourself QC\, and meet others with whom you can collaborate and trouble shoot. No programming experience necessary. \;\n \;\nFor more info rmation about QC\, see: \;\nhttp://developer.apple.com/mac/articles/g raphicsmedia/quartzcomposerinleopard.html \;\nTo play with an interac tive video piece (written by Surya)\, go to http://momopro.com/stage/qc/ — click and hold your mouse on the video and move it around to control the video. \;\n \;\nImmediately following the QC workshop\, from 3 -6pm\, we will have a meeting of the NorthWest AudioVisualists\, a new g roup of artists\, musicians\, animators\, and video jockeys\, which will include live performances using QC. See http://nwav.org for more inform ation. \;\n \;\nRequired: \;\n \;\nMacintosh computer runnin g 10.5 (Leopard). Anything from a G4 iBook to a Mac Pro tower will work. \;\n \;\nGamepad (Mac-compatible). We recommend the Logitech Dual Action (either Apple Only or USB)\, which looks like a Playstation cont roller and can be purchased for $20 (from GameStop\, Fred Meyer\, Fry’s\ , Best Buy\, etc.). You can use any USB controller or joystick\, but thi s one will be the easiest with which to follow along. \;\n \;\nXCo de - This can be installed from your System DVD that came with your com puter - it used to be called ‘Developer Tools’. It will install the comp onents needed to develop software on your machine\, including our Quartz Composer program. After installing\, do a system update.\n\nTags: apple \, macintosh\, video\, workshop\, quartz\, opentechshop\n\nImported from : http://calagator.org/events/1250457252 URL:http://opentechspace.org/2009/05/27/quartz-composer-workshop/ SUMMARY:Quartz Composer Workshop LOCATION:TechShop Portland [closed]: 10100 SW Allen Blvd\, Beaverton Oreg on 97005 United States SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090921T063330Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20091005T210000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20091005T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090921T063330Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090921T063330Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250457698 DESCRIPTION:This workshop is the first in a series of workshops on how to use microcontrollers to\, well\, control things. \;\n \;\nYou’ve purchased an Arudino-compatible board or completed the Audino Cult Induc tion\, so now it’s time to make your board actually do something. This m onthly workshop covers simple but useful circuits to connect to the pins and how to control those circuits using the Arduino language. \;\n&# 13\;\nThe first workshop is on October 5 from 7 to 9pm at TechShop in Be averton. The class will be held in the upstairs classroom (the “Hack Hut “). \;\n \;\nTo sign up\, go to http://www.pjrc.com/store/workshop .html \;\n \;\nCost of each workshop is $10. You will also need to have: \;\n \;\n* an Arduino-compatible microcontroller board\, su ch as the Dorkboard from the Arduino Cult Induction (with the pins insta lled so you can use it in a solderless breadboard)\, a Teensy\, etc. \;\n \;\n* a USB cable for your board \;\n \;\n* a solderless b readboard \;\n \;\nYou can purchase a complete kit that includes a ll these (Teensy\, breadboard\, USB cable\, plus the first workshop)\, f or $40 from the same site. What a deal! \;\n \;\nYou should also b ring a notebook computer with the Arduino software installed\, or come a half-hour early and we will help you install the software on your compu ter. Finally\, bring wire strippers/cutters and some wire.
