Lots of exciting new posts coming right up. But most importantly I want to acknowledge a nod from Mike of the Bent Festival about me appearing at the Minneapolis, MN gathering on April 19-21st, 2007. As of now I am slated on being there, days are officially taken off work and reservations will be made shortly. The only thing now is to ask around for my friends to join me on the trip.

Another detail yet to be determined is what I’m going to talk about, some possible topics include:

• Selling Instruments in eBay
• Building Oscillators with 4093 Quad NAND Gates or 555 IC
• Controlling Bent Instruments with a Computer Parallel port ( Super Simple Way )
• Controlling Bent Instruments with Processing and Arduino Board ( Super Simple Way 2 )
• 486 computer bending

These topics are not confirmed with the organizers, but soon I’m hoping they will be so I can start preparing. Any comments or suggestions are welcome.
