h3. Links
I promised people some links during the beer drinking session.
* The text and graphics and English translations for ??Atalanta Fugiens?? are online at “The Alchemy Website”:http://www.levity.com/alchemy/atl1-5.html. Jack Campin’s ABC transcription of the tunes is “here”:http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/Music/Atalanta.abc.
* The Disney illustrations of ??The Communist Manifesto?? are “here”:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1oGIffyVVk&NR. You might want to check this soon, as it’s the kind of thing YouTube may need to remove pretty fast.
* “WordPress.com”:http://www.wordpress.com is the site I recommended if someone wanted a free place to put up writings, pictures, etc., with a fair amount of flexibility. Your site will be called a blog, but there’s also a capability of writing static pages, so if you don’t want to blog you don’t have to.
h3. Schedule
We will be continuing our weekly dropin meetings for the forseeable future, on Tuesdays at 7:45 PM at “my place”:http://www.laymusic.org/directions.html.
We also need to schedule the Christmas party. Since December 25th is a Monday, I assume many people will leave town on Friday the 22nd, so we’ll plan for the previous weekend. If you have a strong preference for Sunday, December 17, over Saturday, December 16, or vice versa, let me know about it in the next week or so.
