New Media Interchange has an opportunity to hold a unconference retreat in Ojai, California and I wanted to see if there is interest in such an event. Possible dates in my mind include late spring to early summer this year.

I imagine a day-long event featuring new media presentations, new media screenings, group discussions and even some time to create audio and video shows on the spot.

Some possible sessions I can foresee:
  • Getting the most of YouTube
  • Using Blip.tv
  • Podcasting 101 - Getting Started
  • Camera and audio recorder selection - Which is best for you and your project?
  • Beginning Wordpress
  • Lighting for New Media
  • Audio for New Media
  • Facebook Pages - Setup and use
  • Live streaming your show or event

The location is an amazing site with areas for presentations and breakout group sessions set in a rural area surrounded by orange groves and gardens. There is a kitchen space and grill area for potluck/sponsored lunch and dinner. Wifi, video projection and PA are available.

Interested? Email douglas.w...@gmail.com .

Figured I would throw this out there and see who might be interested. Especially after the nice time we had last weekend. Liam is interested, too. I am chatting him now.

We would try to record and stream as much as possible, yes.

I'm interested! Reality is it depends on the cost.
Because of the <http://macgathering.com>, I have:
2 sets of Fender Audio Passport 150 PA speakers and tripods.
A portable M-audio 2-port mixer.
I should have 2 or more pico projectors by then too.
I can maybe get more.

The intention is for it to be free, as it will be a New Media Interchange event.
