PNW2008: Idiotboy Demos the Future Retro XS
YouTube via matrixsynth
"Idiotboy demos the Future Retro XS at the Pacific Northwest Synth Gathering 2008."
Update: Just a quick note on these videos: They are not meant to be performances and they are not prepped. The gathering is very informal. People get together and just set up their gear followed by walking around, checking gear out and talking shop. After lunch (some good pizza) we typically go around the room one by one and just talk about the gear we brought. It's not scripted and it's not a performance, so don't think of these videos as "taped for YouTube." They are not. They are however meant to give you an idea of what these events are like. I went to the SIDY event in the UK this year and it was very much the same minus the talks.
BTW, if you gave a talk at the event and prefer I not put it up, shoot me an email. My contact info is on the bottom right of the site.

...good lord I'm an idiot.
ReplyDeletehah! You did fine. We are always our worst critic. I fear the day I show up and ruin the site for everyone.
ReplyDeleteWhat's actually interesting about these videos is that it gives insight into what an informal gathering of people do at these events. It's not a produced concert or the like. It's just a bunch of people that get together, bring some gear and chat about it. That's it. Not a performance or other. I went to the SDIY event in the UK this year and it was exactly the same minus the round table so to speak. As the event grows I wonder if there will be time to continue the talks. I appreciate them myself, but at the same time they take up a lot of time and as someone presenting you are almost always left wishing you said or did something else. I don't think anyone comes with a planned speech or performance in mind.
ReplyDeleteI gave the worst "speech" of the day. I suck at public speaking! I'm just glad i was last and were out of time =o]
ReplyDeletedon't be so hard on yourself, guys! not many of us are 'good at public speaking'...
