Blender at linux.conf.au – Help Needed

Posted on by

lca-poster.jpgThe Australian linux.conf.au will be held at the University of New South wales, in Sydney, Australia from Januari 15 – 20. Part of their program is the ‘Open Day’ on the 18th. The organisation has invited Elephants Dream lead artist Matt Ebb to give a Blender demo, but he could use your help.

Matt writes:

I’ve been invited, and have agreed to give a short demo of Blender / Elephants Dream at the open day, but I’ve recently learned that there will also be 40 or so tables set up and available throughout the day for each project to give demos and have a chat with people.

[...] I can be at a table for a short while, but I’m really busy on that day and I have to leave early. So, are there any Blender users in Sydney who would like to come down and hang out there in the afternoon? That way there won’t just be a pathetic looking empty Blender desk as people come by.

This sounds like a good opportunity to meet some fellow Blenderheads! For more information check out Matts blog.
