A friend of mine composed this nice collection that will surely be of
interest:

First, SRL is going to be performing in Los Angeles on December 22nd.
It is the most remarkable machine performance you will ever see in your
life. If you ever get the chance to see a show, you see it. There's an
unofficial motto, "One city, one show." This addresses that a
bit<http://www.lee.org/blog/2012/07/28/srl-was-on-the-cutting-edge-when-i-was-in-elementary-school/>
.

Here is the performance notification

Bring earplugs. AND earmuffs. Seriously.

Lee Sonko will be teaching a Flame Effects intensive at the Crucible
Saturday &
Sunday 2/9 -2/10, 10-6pm.
(link<https://store.thecrucible.org/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=415_442_668>
)
If you (or your friend??) can take the time, you might get more out of a 5
week class instead of the Intensive, Tuesdays 6:30pm-9:30pm Feb 26-Mar 26 (

)

Lee also might be teaching a Flame Effects class in Los Angeles in the
springtime. I'm still looking for a good location to teach it (funny how
landlords shy away from the class title!). If you've got a lead on a
place, give me (l...@lee.org) a holler! Details forthcoming.

If you're into Arduino... or want to be... consider taking a class at the
Crucible. Or a lower-key route is an informal Arduino gathering...

.
This is put on by Michael Shiloh, a Crucible (and SFState) Physical
Computing teacher.
