    <title>Dec  2, 2009: £5 App Meet at Hectors House</title>
    <description><![CDATA[A meet-up for programmers, web developers and designers to discuss and showcase their &quot;£5 apps&quot; - lightweight software created by one or two people who take a simple idea and run with it.<br /><br />
The discussion will range from technical (what tools/languages were used during development) to business (building communities, spreading the word, costs and rewards).<br /><br />
This years Christmas special £5app will be held at Hector&#39;s House and has a music theme (much like the gaming theme of last year&#39;s Christmas special (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://fivepoundapp.com/meetup/14/">http://fivepoundapp.com/meetup/14/</a>) ).<br /><br />
We&#39;ve got quite a busy line-up, so we expect everything to run for a bit longer than usual:<br /><br />
* Seb Lee-Delisle (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://sebleedelisle.com/">http://sebleedelisle.com/</a>) – &quot;My life as a wannabe rock star at the birth of the internet music boom&quot;<br />
* Toby Cole (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.55th.co.uk/">http://www.55th.co.uk/</a>) – &quot;Zero to Theremin in 20 days&quot; – How BuildBrighton built a feature rich, ultrasonic, laser etched MIDI controller in under three weeks<br />
* Tom Hume (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://tomhume.org/">http://tomhume.org/</a>) – &quot;You&#39;re all an orchestra, get over it&quot; – Bluetooth devices will interact with the audience to create changing ambient music, created by Future Platforms for a Hack Day<br />
* Jim Purbrick (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://jimpurbrick.com/">http://jimpurbrick.com/</a>) – A short talk on the Mrmr/LiveAPI guitar mounted iPhone Ableton live interface by the head of Second Life Europe (and later a demo with 100Robots)<br />
* 100Robots (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.myspace.com/onehundredrobots">http://www.myspace.com/onehundredrobots</a>) – Jim and Max Williams (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://webcrisps.wordpress.com/">http://webcrisps.wordpress.com/</a>) play live and loud for us<br /><br />
Seb has the main talk:<br /><br />
&quot;Before Seb Lee-Delisle was peddling his digital creations, he had an entirely different life. He spent most of his 20s setting up Solar Records and promoting his band Stargirl (later Laine). Investing over £50,000 of their own money, they released their own CDs, made it onto the radio and TV, played in front of 30,000 people, recorded at George Martin’s Air Studios and had full page spreads in the nationals.&quot;<br /><br />
&quot;They were at the forefront internet music boom of the late 90s. The future was looking rosy for this group of dynamic 20-somethings. So come and find out what it was like, how the hell they got the £50K, and why their plans didn’t quite reach fruition…&quot;<br /><br />
Beer – several of us who are doing well this year will put up some bar-money (Alan of SensibleDevelopment (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sensibledevelopment.com/">http://www.sensibledevelopment.com/</a>) and Ian&#39;s ProCasts (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://procasts.co.uk/">http://procasts.co.uk/</a>) so far, several more to come, get in contact if you want to share the love).  We may also get mulled wine if we&#39;re lucky.<br /><br />
Food – maybe nibbles.  Hopefully either cake or cookies too.<br />

    <title>Nov 12, 2009: Pecha Kucha Night, Brighton #3 at Lighthouse</title>
    <description><![CDATA[&quot;Pecha Kucha (which is Japanese for the sound of conversation) has tapped into a demand for a forum in which creative work can be easily and informally shown, without having to rent a gallery or chat up a magazine editor. Each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds each - giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, the interest level up, and gives more people the chance to show.&quot;<br /><br />
Door sales only.<br />

    <title>Nov 25, 2009: Skillswap Goes Wayfinding at Lighthouse</title>
    <description><![CDATA[<strong>Talk 1</strong><br />
<strong>Legible London: When is a wayfinding system the answer to a city&#39;s economic future?</strong><br />
Patricia Brown &amp; <a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://www.appliedinformationgroup.com/people/kasper_de_graaf.shtml">Kasper de Graaf</a><br /><br />
This talk will focus on the capital&#39;s nascent wayfinding system, looking at the strategic rationale for a unified tool to support walking in the capital and an update on the development of the system so far. <a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://www.tfl.gov.uk/microsites/legible-london/default.aspx">Read more about the Legible London project</a>.<br /><br />
<strong>Talk 2</strong><br />
<strong>The future of wayfinding</strong><br />
<a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://www.cennydd.co.uk/">Cennydd Bowles</a><br /><br />
We&#39;ve got pretty good at helping people find their way through today&#39;s digital world. Information architecture, taking cues from physical architecture, has built a toolkit of wayfinding aids including menus, breadcrumbs, signage. But things are about to get a lot more interesting.<br /><br />
The boundaries between the abstract digital world and the real physical world are becoming blurred. GPS has made the A-Z map redundant. RFID chips will soon enable a world of &quot;spimes&quot;, where our environment can tell us all about itself and how we should interact with it. Geolocation offers an immersive augmented reality where data combines with space in revolutionary ways. Our landmarks are now both physical and digital. One day, a church spire; the next, a WiFi cloud. Our old wayfinding methods will soon be as outdated as the sextant.<br /><br />
Even now, people are beginning to use new technology to annotate and enrich their surroundings. Location-driven technology is most powerful in the hands of local users, and it is our responsibility as designers to ensure that these systems are accessible, collaborative and safe.<br /><br />
Given this quantum leap, we need new approaches to wayfinding, information scent and navigation. This session will explore how we can we use information architecture to shape the chaos. How can we design systems for both the digital and physical world that allow users to orientate themselves, understand the choices available, and feel at home?<br /><br />
Participants will take away a new understanding of the exciting challenges ahead of us, including the role of mobile devices, the ubiquitous information age, and the privacy implications of our new location-critical lives.<br /><br />
<strong>How do I get a ticket?</strong><br />
Registration will be open from 11am on Wednesday 4th November via <a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://skillswapgoeswayfinding.eventbrite.com/">Eventbrite</a> and thanks to <a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://www.madgex.com/">Madgex</a> will be absolutely free. <br /><br />

    <title>Nov 23, 2009: National Freelancers Day at The Eagle</title>
    <description><![CDATA[The Professional Contractors Group (PCG) have nominated 23rd November as<br />
National Freelancers Day and there will be events happening all over the<br />
country to support and celebrate freelancers and contractors.<br /><br />
Crunch.co.uk/Freelance Advisor, Contractor Mortgages Made Easy and the<br />
Farm are getting together to help the PCG put on the Brighton event. As<br />
Brighton and Hove have the highest per capita number of freelancers in<br />
the country, our night will of course be the best ;-)<br /><br />
It&#39;ll start at 7.30pm on Monday 23rd November in the Eagle pub. There<br />
will be a few talks, a long networking session with plenty of beer and<br />
lots of interesting people to meet. This is going out to PCG members as<br />
well as our normal lists so there should be a load of new people to meet<br />
on the night who don&#39;t usually come out to Brighton&#39;s new media groups.<br /><br />
If you&#39;re a freelancer, contractor, or interested in becoming one,<br />
please come along. It&#39;ll be a great night.<br />

    <title>Nov 21, 2009: Film Camera &amp; Lighting Techniques Workshop at Brighton Media Centre</title>
    <description><![CDATA[This is a practical hands-on one-day workshop teaching the essentials of film camera and lighting.<br /><br />
Covers how to operate a digital video camera and basic lighting techniques for shooting short films, documentaries and low budget features.<br /><br />
Taught by an award-winning cinematographer and held in a professional film studio, this workshop goes through all the controls and menus of a Sony Z1 digital film camera.<br /><br />
We show you how to set up a camera, head and tripod. We show you how to operate the camera plus manually set exposure, white balance, focus, audio levels, zebra, time-code etc.<br /><br />
It will help you get to grips with the nuts and bolts of digital cinematography and equip you with tools that you will be able to apply to more sophisticated digital camera systems.<br /><br />
We will also demonstrate the 3 point lighting technique, the usual starting point in most lighting set ups. Plus demonstrate soft and hard lighting styles.<br /><br />
Aimed at students and people just starting out in their film and TV careers, you&#39;ll leave with a better understanding of film camera and lighting techniques giving you the confidence to shoot bigger, better and more beautiful films!<br />

    <title>Nov 14, 2009: Directing Actors For Film Masterclass at Brighton Media Centre</title>
    <description><![CDATA[Hollywood film and top TV drama director Maurice Phillips gives a masterclass on everything there is know about directing actors for film and TV drama.<br /><br />
This is a must-go-to event for any fledgling director to get the most out of his or her cast.<br /><br />
In this one day workshop, Maurice will take you through the process of establishing a creative and collaborative relationship with your actors. <br /><br />
You will learn how to get the most out of a performance through rehearsals, how to troubleshoot poor interpretation, and how to give brief and incisive direction to the actor. <br /><br />
In addition there will be discussions in what constitutes a good performance, what actors need from a director, scene analysis, subtext, and the director/actor relationship. <br /><br />
There will also be practical demonstrations using a film camera and professional working actors of scene blocking and choreography for the camera. <br /><br />
Amongst the many actors Maurice has worked with are Clive Owen, Dennis Hopper, Gene Wilder, Richard Prior, Gweneth Patrow, Elizabeth Perkins, John Hannah, David Hemmings, Michael Fassbender, Trevor Eve, and James Nesbitt.<br />

    <title>Dec  4, 2009: 2600 Meeting at Buddies 24 hour restaurant</title>
    <description><![CDATA[Meet at the phone boxes by the Sealife centre (across the road from<br />
the Palace Pier) between 19:00 and 19:15 *GMT*, then on to Buddies<br />
Cafe. It&#39;s worth noting that &#39;our&#39; phone box (the westmost) is now a<br />
cash machine, making hanging around there just a touch more<br />
challenging...)<br />

    <description><![CDATA[Are you a writer?<br /><br />
If you&#39;re a professional writer, or someone who wants to be a professional writer (like a journalist, copywriter, novelist, poet, travel writer, proofreader or anything else) or just someone who would like to meet writers, come along! <br /><br />
You might also be someone who writes proposals, pitches, contracts or important emails.<br /><br />
WriteClub is a very relaxed, informal association that consists of drinking beer and chatting. You can come along to get ideas or support, to find inspiration or tips or to just get away from the laptop and meet other writers working in your area.<br /><br />
What do you need? Nothing. Just yourself and some change for a drink.<br /><br />
We&#39;re starting at 8:00 but please turn up and leave whenever is most convenient for you.<br /><br />
We hope to see you there!<br /><br />

    <title>Nov 16, 2009: Create Brighton: Inaugural Drink and Get Together at The Victory</title>
    <description><![CDATA[Create Brighton is just an idea at the moment. I think that it should be a place online for Brighton&#39;s creative community to get together to share work, get feedback from peers, showcase homegrown talent to the wider world and be a central point to find other, related activities that are happening locally and beyond.<br /><br />
You should come along to the upstairs bar at the Victory on Monday, November 16th to have a chat over a pint of whatever you fancy. You can tell me what you&#39;d like to get out of Create Brighton. It won&#39;t be even vaguely formal though I may try and force a name badge on you as I have an abysmal memory for names and faces.<br /><br />
I hope to see you there!<br />

    <title>Mar  2, 2010: Low Tide Sunset Bike Ride at Brighton Marina</title>
    <description><![CDATA[Fun cycle dash over the exposed sand flats during one of the <a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://www.pol.ac.uk/ntslf/hilo.php?port=newhaven">lowest tides of the year</a>. The ride usually goes along the beach from the west wall of Brighton Marina to the King Alfred Centre and beyond (or vice versa), or as far as you and your bike can make it.<br /><br />
Time and tide wait for no-one, so if you can&#39;t make it to the start, join the ride en route. The ride sets off 30 minutes after meeting, so as to catch the lowest tide and the sunrise. If starting from the Marina, the ride will probably pass under Brighton Pier another 30 minutes after that, if you&#39;d like to meet there.<br /><br />
Following August 2007&#39;s Low Tide Naked Critical Mash-Up bike ride, the event is clothing-optional, and riders often go for a skinny-dip in the sea at the end of the ride.<br /><br />
For evening rides, participants can adjourn for drinks afterwards at <a rel="nofollow" HREF="http://www.theneptunelivemusicbar.co.uk/">The Neptune</a> pub.<br /><br />
Bring bikes, waterproofs, warm clothes, towels and lights. Remember to thoroughly wash the salt and sand off your bike afterwards. If you&#39;re worried about using your own bike, pick a scrap one up from a skip.<br /><br />
Example tide and sun times from 22 August 2009:<br /><br />
		12:58 am BST High tide 7.01 Meters<br />
		5:58 am BST Sunrise<br />
		7:21 am BST Low tide 0.43 Meters<br />
		1:23 pm BST High tide 7.12 Meters<br />
		7:42 pm BST Low tide 0.56 Meters<br />
		8:05 pm BST Sunset<br /><br />
