Subject: WORKSHOP: Reaching Out and Zap Somebody

(Well, that's not quite the name of the workshop -- but it always
helps to have a snappy title to get people's attention!)

This is the workshop I mentioned a few weeks back -- it's goal is to
provide an opportunity for people for CESS folks in general and
Expressionists in particular to begin building an electronic version
of that room.

[] Time:  Monday - Thursday:   9:00 am - 10:00 am
			      10:00 am - noon available

[] Place: 113-T Waterman, the Macintosh Lab. 
	  Although we will use the Mac lab for production,
	  all of what we do will be "platform independent."


[] Agenda: Subject to variation depending on participant interests.
   This is meant to be a real workshop, hands on, get things done,
   learn what we have to, make progress, meet the needs of the
   participants.

   I'm trying to "plan" one hour, and then have two hours open for
   people who want to (or need to :) go further.  Everything is
   negotiable.

Technical Requirements:

	If u cn rply to ths msg ... :)

	Basically, e-mail skills are all that are required. The
	multimedia part may be disorienting, but that's true
	for even people who've been doing it for years: multimedia
	is definitely multidimensional -- that's what makes it
	so much fun. 


Questions and answers:

	Just post to this list.
