Image Editing Software

Hey guys,

Sorry for the delay.  Here's a list of a few freeware image editors:

1) GIMP (probably the champion out of all of them, might be a tad confusing to use at first)

2) DrawPlus (Serif put out this free version that is rather intuitive to use, a nice alternative to Gimp if you find GIMP difficult to use)

3) Smooth Draw (if you have a tablet and use that to draw - this is your freeware program)

4) InkScape (heard good things about it, no personal experience though)

This just scratches the surface of what's out there.  If you have an idea of which specific features you are looking for I could produce a more direct list.  If you have any questions or issues, shoot me an email and I can help!

Midterm Performance brainstorming...

Midterm brainstorm from the 2/29 (leap day!) class:

Who:
• 15-20 people, invite a couple of close friends each

What:
• A complete thing, not a work in progress
• Translating/recreating objects + spaces (like the original auditorium exercise)
• Integrate audience (at some point actually doing stuff)
• Stephen's vegetation pieces
• Installation as setting
• Jams, work up ideas from previous/future playing sessions

Where:
• Granoff + environs

When:
• March 21, 7-10pm

Other stuff/ideas:
• can we scale up the intimate pieces? divide audience into groups, cap number at a particular thing at a particular time.
•Stephen's vegetation pieces as a whole room
•Need visual component, video, stills, immersive
•Bagpipes
•audience some how influence jam sessions
•develop out from the classroom
•Clifton's echo-y guitar pedal business
•Have Fun, not pretentious - thanks Cliff

Oh and lately I've got two Davids (Bowie/Lynch) on the brain. How 'bout you?
