…would’ve loved to be there with the stribe but my latest project (6mo old lucy) is keeping us busy at home – hope there’s another meetup soon! blogged-about here: http://www.soundwidgets.com/2009/10/monome-meet-2009.html

Was fantastic to meet you, too, bliss, after many virtual comments, etc. :)

Generally, it’s always lovely to meet folks I know virtually – which I think is a big part of why people came.

Mind-expanding with a dash, to be exact. ;-)

Was the best time I had all year. Met so many wonderful, smart people… even the publisher of this here blog. Mind expanding experience. Inspiring.

I wish I could have made it there!! I was in NYC on the day and I played there the night before but the tour exhaustion got the better of me. Hurrah for the monome.

the daedelus live performance is so great, can’t find any words describing what it does to my testicles/heart/whomb.

thanks for the ardiunome link, peter, i was so into that launchpad thing last week, this week it’s snyderphonics manta, but novembre is my time of year for big soldering projects and ardiunome it will be.

your blog really encourages me to create digital music.

@Peter thanks! It could be worse, though. I mean, I see all this talk about arduinomes and figure that I might just get what I need for one of those when our finances improve a bit. In any case, I might just try to sell my apartment before our possible move to NY next fall.
I love the monome and all, but I’ll regret more not being a part of the monome community for a while, or as edison put it into words, the monome family. man, I’m gonna miss that.

the max patches don’t even know what device they are connected to so, yes.
Some apps may offer tilt functionality but I’m sure you can add that to the arduinome as well

Actually, on our own humble noisepages you’ll find Owen and Jordan have put together a really extraordinary guide to the Arduinome (they were part of the group that originated the project).

http://flipmu.com/work/arduinome/

It should definitely be your first stop to learning how to build one, as they’ve put together the most complete and accurate directions. That plus having the forums folks to help you out is really exceptional.

And to me, this is really the kind of ‘clone’ that’s in the spirit of having open hardware. The whole project was all about making the gear more accessible.

@7oi: oh, that’s really quite sad. I hope we can find a way to get you another one, and to fetch a good price for it. I’d buy it off of you if I could afford it!
