Hell Yeah, Success!

Yeah, it's a bummer that I'm not going to be able to make the meet either...damn wedding. :M I am definitely still interested in getting together with you all and I would even consider lugging my sub along as well. When is the Chicago DIY meet this year?

[---k---]

Stevenn, where are you? For some reason I was thinking Cal.

I'm up here in bass country, Oregon.. close to the border of Washington. If we can figure something out, I'm willing to fly to where-ever though. I already told the wife, so all it takes is a date next year and I'm good to go.

"Told the wife". I haven't told my wife anything other than "I'm done--what's next?" for years. By the way, I live right smack in the middle of the USA. Everyone can come to my house since I will surely have my room and sub done by next year. Oh wait! That would require me telling my wife that a bunch of strangers are coming over to destroy the house 8O .

For those of you who might be interested in the get together that was mentioned above, have a peek at this thread:

Damn, me and Jon were just discussing inviting one more person, preferably someone from the boards so they can engage in the conversation that is sure to follow no matter what the outcome. Could either of you guys really make the trip to Lafayette, Indiana, on May 20? It will likely be an all day event.

Unfortunately I've already taken off way too many days from work. Saturdays are my off day, but Sunday I work from 9-7pm and I doubt i'll get home in time for work... Also, my finals start the following week after that and I have a lot of catching up to do. Maybe next time!

I wish you guys lived closer to the south...Chuck, Launche, and I could have shown up as well with a pair of sono's and my AV15 :cry:

Yeah, that's exactly what we're trying to avoid- you showing up. That's why we all moved to the midwest.
:P

You can bring your big sub up to Palm Bay and try it out next to my huge Dayton RS 3-way towers. The new Tool CD is giving them a pretty good workout right now. :T

Now I'm a Purdue grad, but...

"Well at least Georgia Tech didn't put an Islamic terrorist through graduate school!" :evil:

It was all over the news a few weeks ago.

Totally off topic, but I started browsing the Purdue Technology site and I found one of my projects posted on a course website as an example. I took an intro to CG course senior year for fun and at the end we had two weeks to make a flash file that combined the movie The Incredibles and the book Prey. We were advised to use geometric shapes as opposed to fluid figures. Just thought I'd share - about 70% of my 2 weeks went to the sound editing, and there is a part in there when the nanobots form up where I combined the sound of a swarm of bees with a 20hz and 60hz sine wave lol, had to write a warning on the cd I turned in not to play it too loud on computer speakers. Voices aren't me, and I know it is far from a great animation, just something for fun that had nothing to do with my major.

Love it! Even then, as a wee lad, you recognized the need for Uber Subwoofers. Well done, Steve. :T

Thanks, it was just under two years ago though I guess I am still a wee lad compared to most in this hobby - I mean that in a good way.

[palmtree]

That really was pretty cool. I have never done any animation but it looks like fun.

[---k---]

Wow, I didn't even know that they offered a class like that. I'm wishing I would have taken a couple of more fun course like that. It sure would have beat the First Aid course I took my last semester... or would it. hummmm

Pretty cool animation. But, you know you used a differnt font in the beginning than at the end. Very amature.

I liked it.

Brian:
Be careful what you wish for! You might have 3 stragglers hungry for sound show up one afternoon. Besides , I would love to hear the 3 ways in person. I believe there is a DIY group in Central Florida. If you know about it, PM me with some info.

Chuck

PS - My comcast Internet connection is down so I'm catching up on all the messages. :M

If you look closely, the font I used at the beginning is the same font used from the Alien series, part II being a favorite of mine - the way Purdue set it up, it naturally fills your screen, and it distorts things a bit, but it's the Alien font all the way.
