Cheap drinks :-)
Bring your laptops and unplug, free wireless.
Plus, bring your media for jamming.
We have a new format for this Video Salon. We will have formal presentations for the first two hours, and then open the floor to the traditional Video Salon style VJ Jam.

Quartz Composer started its life as PixelShox Studio, which was developed in 2002 and 2003 by Pierre-Olivier Latour. Development on the original application reached public beta 0.92b
In the transition from PixelShox to Quartz Composer, the application was reworked to act as a showcase and development tool for all that Tiger's new CoreImage technology has to offer.
For VJ's Quartz Composer is a powerful tool capable of being used as a stand-alone VJ application or, intergraded into 3rd party VJ apps.
Pierre has been programming for years and in addition to Quartz and Pixel Shox his has written numerous Freeware and Shareware apps. Currently Pierre is focusing on Quartz Composer for Apple's newest OS, Leopard.

Peter Kirn
New York-based musician/visualist and www.createdigitalmotion.com and www.createdigitalmusic.com editor will show how a Mac with Jitter and v001 can mix custom 3D and 2D visuals, hooked up to a Nintendo Wii controller and Nintendo DS. If none of that made sense, just come watch a guy wave his arms around and make some eye candy.
Peter has his finger on the pulse of technology development for A/V artists.

Grant Davis (VJ Culture) Co-founder of Video Salon and Video Riot will demo the MIDI capabilities of Apple's Motion 2.
With enough RAM and GPU power Motion 2 can be used as a real-time VJ application or, a quick way to create key frames using MIDI.
