I've tried to think of the best way I can sum up AC and I really can't. It's always too much and this year's Wednesday night to Monday morning con was the longest I've been to so far, so really it'll be hard to sum it all up. Let me touch on high points:

Wednesday Night:
Simba told me it was time to party, so I came out to party. Goddamn, it was awesome. I met a bunch of cool folks (like Sp0rk!) and saw Madius, Simba and a whole lot of other folks I haven't seen for a while. Was a good time, was good drinks, was good. Had fun.

Thursday:
Distinct memories about Thursday include getting stuck on the roof of the convention center (for at least 20 or 30 minutes) and also setup for the con. Uh, beyond that I spent like ten minutes at a dance. Tiff showed up that day (I think!) Other than that I don't really remember much distinct about Thursday. Way too much going on. Registration, maybe. Yeah. Registration. Also, new reporters. Saw a lot of folks.

Friday:
Friday was my dance, hooray. Drac->Valrejn->Me->Tek. It was a good night, and despite massive, catastrophic (no exxageration) hardware failure which resulted in music grinding to a halt twice, it was undoubtedly the single most fun show I've ever played, I was enjoying it so much it was ridiculous. I want all your videos and pictures. I had a great time, loved playing for everyone, and was particularly glad to hang out with my colleagues on stage. It was awesome - thanks, everyone. Also, as always for the past few cons I've played, thank you so much to Fizz Otter for the lasers, they add so much to the night.

Saturday:
A total blur.

And of course Sunday never even happened :P

I suspect Sunday was a continuation of the total blur that started on Saturday. In my experience, Total Blur phenomena tend to last days, sometimes even weeks.

One of these days I swear I WILL get a chance to see/hear you play live. I might even go out on the floor and pretend I know how to dance :)

Hey Protocollie. I've got a vid starting from shortly before your first software blip, until the end of your set. Is there any video format that works particularly well for you? Does h.264/mp4 mean anything to you?
Protocollie[info]protocollie on July 8th, 2009 05:48 am (UTC)
h.264 is fine, i'm on a mac :]

Try this on for size: http://coldnose.ath.cx:5050/coldnose/MOV063.MOD.zip

920mb. It's just the raw camera file, zipped. You can play it with VLC or mplayer.

Are you still blurring? or has that subsided? might want to see a doctor about that if it's continuing to trouble you! ;)

Sounds like a good time, sorry I missed it.

Maybe I'll catch you at the next shindig?

Stay fresh!
