"There is much more into the MOOCs than what we see"
Pierre Dillenbourg, Professor of Computer Science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), is co-author of the article MOOCs are More Social than You Believe, included in issue number 33 of eLearning Papers.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are indeed changing the educational landscape, says Mr Dillenbourg in a podcast interview with eLearningEuropa.info, but "in terms or technology and the kind of pedagogy involved, there is not a major revolution compared to what was done before." The major changes, he points out, are on the social dimension.
"My goal is to show there is much more into the MOOCs than what we see", he says. For instance, it is already being acknowledged by university teachers that on-campus students who follow MOOCs are better prepared when they take their exercises, "because they have time to digest" the information. This single fact, he says, justifies all the energy put into the design of these courses, as "being better prepared for an exercise is a key factor" for educators.
Professor Dillenbourg also stresses that "you need to be quite self motivated to follow a MOOC", as these are usually tough and contents are highly demanding. This is for example something valuable that potential employers might want to know, and students should start adding MOOCs in their CVs because "they are an indicator of motivation."
Researchers on learning technologies should analyse in-depth "the innovative practices that come around what seems a traditional medium", he recommends.

eLearning Africa 2013 - Innovation or Sustainability: the Choice for African Education
Four controversial experts will take part in "a bare-knuckle fight" about priorities for African education at this year's eLearning Africa Debate. Outspoken Scottish entrepreneur and blogger Donald Clark and Namibian teacher and eLearning expert Maggy Beukes-Amiss will square up to "mobile technology crusader" Adele Botha and Angelo Gitonga of the ICT for Education Unit of Kenya's Ministry for Education at the annual war of words. They'll be arguing about whether too much attention has been paid to innovation in education and not enough to sustainability.
"It's a big issue and there'll be a bare-knuckle fight," says Harold Elletson, who will chair the debate alongside Honourable Silvia Makgone, Deputy Minister of Education, Namibia. According to Dr Elletson, "Some people think that the focus on innovation and technology has just persuaded governments and consumers to invest in equipment that soon becomes redundant. They say that the priority should be to support projects that are sustainable. Other people argue that innovation is vital to Africa's competitiveness and future economic growth. They say that it should be at the heart of the education system."
The eLearning Africa Debate has become the highlight of the eLearning Africa conference, an annual gathering of experts and decision-makers from all over Africa and beyond. Traditionally one of the liveliest and best attended events at the conference, this year's debate is likely to stir up real controversy.
"It's an issue which affects everyone and on which everyone has an opinion," says Dr Elletson. "The debate is an opportunity for conference participants to say what they think about one of the most important issues for the future of education in Africa."
The motion for debate, which will be put to a vote, is "This house believes that sustainability is more important than innovation for education in Africa". The debate will be held at the Safari Conference Centre in Windhoek, Namibia. All conference participants are welcome to attend and to take part in what promises to be a tense and exciting climax to a fascinating conference.
Information on the debate can be found at http://www.elearning-africa.com/programme_debate.php, and the full conference programme can be found at http://www.elearning-africa.com/programme_table.php%20.

Commissioner Kim Canada said he doesn't want to take up the application from Chris and Erin Lewis until there's a policy in place on urban poultry.
"It was wrong for the planning commission to recommend denial on this, then take up a text amendment in January and possibly pass it," he said during a heated debate at the board's last caucus.
The board first received the Lewises' application in October, but sent it back to the Rome-Floyd County Planning Commission, which had already recommended denial.
At the same time, City Commissioners asked the volunteer planning commission members to consider a possible change to the ordinance governing chickens in the city.
The planning commission agreed early this month to revisit the issue in January, but voted again to reject the Lewises' application.
"This came here because of (a complaint from) the neighbors," member Frank Brown said.
Canada and Commissioner Buzz Wachsteter expressed frustration last week that the larger urban poultry issue is still not settled, but it's unclear if there's an answer that will satisfy the full board.
It's an open secret that a number of families are raising poultry for personal use, but the elected commission has twice rejected an ordinance that would have regulated the activity.
A majority on the board said they don't want the animals within the city limits, yet they're asking the planning commission for a third time to consider creating a policy. A draft proposal that would have required annual registration drew fire from Canada, who said he wants each case to be considered individually at a public hearing.
On top of that, planning commission members are similarly divided whenever they make a recommendation on backyard chickens.
"We're a laughingstock," Wachsteter said, when he saw the Lewis hearing back on the agenda, and Commissioner Bill Collins laughingly agreed.
"We need to stop talking about this and just do it," Collins chuckled. "The egg is already on our face."
The board caucuses at 5 p.m. and starts its regular meeting at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall, 601 Broad St. Both sessions are open to the public.

Hurricanes scrum-half TJ Perenara will make his long-awaited return to action in Saturday's warm-up game against the Crusaders in Timaru.
Perenara - who has been named as a replacement - has been sidelined since breaking his ankle during a Hurricanes bye week last year June.
Hurricanes boss Mark Hammett said Perenara had made a full recovery and was hoping to play for 30 minutes this weekend.
Hammett is hoping the team's three warm-up matches - the other fixtures are against the Rebels and the Chiefs - will increase competition for places ahead of their tournament-opener against the Blues in Wellington on February 23.
Hooker Dane Coles is the only All Black who will face the Crusaders, with the rest - Captain and centre Conrad Smith, loose forward Victor Vito, wing Cory Jane, fly-half Beauden Barrett and new prop Ben Franks - set to return over the next two weeks.
Hammett said the clash with the Crusaders, which will be played over four quarters, is still important despite the absence of several top players.
"The thing about the pre-season is you always find out how the things you have trained [for] work against a defence that is coming at you full tilt," he told Fairfax Media.
Hurricanes: 15 Andre Taylor, 14 Richard Buckman, 13 Tim Bateman, 12 Rey LeeLo, 11 Matt Proctor, 10 James Marshall, 9 Chris Smylie, 8 Mike Coman, 7 Karl Lowe, 6 Callum Gibbins, 5 Jason Eaton, 4 Blade Thomson, 3 Ben May, 2 Ash Dixon, 1 Reg Goodes.
Replacements: 16 Dane Coles, 17 Jeremy Thrush, 18 Eric Sione, 19 Jeffery Toomaga-Allen, 20 James Broadhurst, 21 Mark Reddish, 22 Faifili Levave, 23 TJ Perenara, 24 Papa Wharewera, 25 Ope Peleseuma, 26 Ambrose Curtis, 27 Parataiso Silafai-Lea'ana.

Asteroid buzzes, misses Earth — unlike meteor
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A 150-foot asteroid hurtled through Earth's backyard Friday, coming within an incredible 17,150 miles and making the closest known flyby for a rock of its size. In a chilling coincidence, a meteor exploded above Russia just hours before the asteroid zoomed past the planet.
Scientists the world over, along with NASA, insisted the meteor had nothing to do with the asteroid since they appeared to be traveling in opposite directions. The asteroid is a much more immense object and delighted astronomers in Australia and elsewhere who watched it zip harmlessly through a clear night sky.
"It's on its way out," reported Paul Chodas of NASA's Near-Earth Object program at Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California.
Asteroid 2012 DA14, as it's called, came closer to Earth than many communication and weather satellites orbiting 22,300 miles up. Scientists insisted these, too, would be spared, and they were right.
The asteroid was too small to see with the naked eye even at its closest approach around 2:25 p.m. EST, over the Indian Ocean near Sumatra.
The best viewing locations, with binoculars and telescopes, were in Asia, Australia and eastern Europe. Even there, all anyone could see was a pinpoint of light as the asteroid buzzed by at 17,400 mph.
As asteroids go, this one is a shrimp. The one that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago was 6 miles across. But this rock could still do immense damage if it ever struck given its 143,000-ton heft, releasing the energy equivalent of 2.4 million tons of TNT and wiping out 750 square miles.
By comparison, NASA estimated that the meteor that exploded over Russia was tiny — about 49 feet wide and 7,000 tons before it hit the atmosphere, or one-third the size of the passing asteroid.
As for the back-to-back events, "this is indeed very rare and it is historic," said Jim Green, NASA's director of planetary science. While the asteroid is about half the length of a football field, the exploding meteor "is probably about on the 15-yard line," he said.
"Now that's pretty big. That's typically a couple times bigger than the normal influx of meteorites that create these fireballs," he said in an interview on NASA TV. Continued...
"These fireballs happen about once a day or so, but we just don't see them because many of them fall over the ocean or in remote areas. This one was an exception."
As the countdown for the asteroid's close approach entered the final hours, NASA noted that the path of the meteor appeared to be quite different than that of the asteroid, making the two objects "completely unrelated." The meteor seemed to be traveling from north to south, while the asteroid passed from south to north — in the opposite direction.
Most of the solar system's asteroids are situated in a belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, and remain stable there for billions of years. Some occasionally pop out, though, into Earth's neighborhood.
NASA scientists estimate that an object of this size makes a close approach like this every 40 years. The likelihood of a strike is every 1,200 years.
The flyby provides a rare learning opportunity for scientists eager to keep future asteroids at bay — and a prime-time advertisement for those anxious to step up preventive measures.
Friday's meteor further strengthened the asteroid-alert message.
"We are in a shooting gallery and this is graphic evidence of it," said former Apollo astronaut Rusty Schweickart, chairman emeritus of the B612 Foundation, committed to protecting Earth from dangerous asteroids.
Schweickart noted that 500,000 to 1 million sizable near-Earth objects — asteroids or comets — are out there. Yet less than 1 percent — fewer than 10,000 — have been inventoried.
Humanity has to do better, he said. The foundation is working to build and launch an infrared space telescope to find and track threatening asteroids.
If a killer asteroid was, indeed, incoming, a spacecraft could, in theory, be launched to nudge the asteroid out of Earth's way, changing its speed and the point of intersection. A second spacecraft would make a slight alteration in the path of the asteroid and ensure it never intersects with the planet again, Schweickart said. Continued...
Asteroid DA14 — discovered by Spanish astronomers only last February — is "such a close call" that it is a "celestial torpedo across the bow of spaceship Earth," Schweickart said in a phone interview Thursday.
NASA's deep-space antenna in California's Mojave Desert was ready to collect radar images, but not until eight hours after the closest approach given the United States' poor positioning for the big event.

This is an ambitious project that will elevate india to a greater height should ...
Yet another project doomed to failure - can India succeed in chip manufacturing ...
ST linked to Indian wafer fab bid
Peter Clarke
LONDON – Europe's largest chipmaker STMicroelectronics has been linked to Hindustan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp. (HSMC) as being part of one of two consortia in discussions with the Indian government over a proposal to set up one or more wafer fabs in India.
The most recent initiative to stimulate the start of Indian chip manufacturing was launched by the Indian government nearly two years ago. One consortium, which includes IBM, Jaypee Group and Tower Semiconductor Ltd., is known to have been involved in the process. The Indian government has reportedly said that two projects are left in the running and STMicroelectronics (Geneva Switzerland) has been linked to HSMC in a report from Indian publication LiveMint referencing sources familiar with the tender process.
A decision from the Indian government was originally expected by the end of 2012 but that was later pushed back to the end of the first quarter of 2013.
HSMC was originally formed in about 2007 with a plan to create two wafer fabs in India. It signed a memorandum of understanding with Infineon Technologies AG (Munich, Germany) to license a 130-nm CMOS digital manufacturing process as well as processes for RF and embedded flash. The plan failed to materialize and HSMC has been mainly quiescent since then.
HSMC has has offices in San Jose, Calif., and Delhi, India. It is led by chairman and CEO Devendra Verma, who has experience as a technology executive and venture capitalist. ST could be a source of manufacturing process technology for a newly-created Indian enterprise. This is an activity it has engaged in with chipmakers in Russia.
HSMC declined to comment on whether it was involved with ST in plans to create an Indian wafer fab. ST declined to comment on whether it was involved with HSMC in such plans.

India fab decision likely this quarter

Infineon agrees to license fab processes to Indian chip maker
Looks like these people in India know nothing ( or do not want to learn ) about the strategies followed by Taiwan, So. Korea, Singapore etc. Those countries did not jump from rice fields into Fabs at the latest node ( or even 3 nodes old e,g. 130 nm ) but accepted a sane & realistic learning curve - started with assembly,chip packaging, making simpler components and so on till they had both the trained manpower and credibility to embark on old - node Fabs. Even then it took the best of those Fabs ( eg. TSMC ) a full decade to catch up with the latest node.
Even if this HSMC Co. in India gets 2 node old 45 nm technology from ST or Tower how long will it take them to get their act together and manage repectable yield and then gather up the guts to go on to 32, 28 nm ...?
Do they have enough Capital to burn for the 10 years or longer it has taken others to climb that Hill ?
Its obvious -- they need some good advice & execution
Yet another project doomed to failure - can India succeed in chip manufacturing when solar cell and module makers struggle with poor infrastructure, lack of trained staff and stifling export/import regulations?
This is an ambitious project that will elevate india to a greater height should it succeed . i will be keen on the project as iam also interested in chip design

Certified ScrumMaster
All CSM courses are taught by Certified Scrum Trainers. Taking a CSM course, passing the CSM test, and accepting the license agreement designates you as a Certified ScrumMaster, which indicates that you have been introduced to and understand the basic concepts you need to perform as a ScrumMaster or team member on a Scrum team. This course also satisfies two elements of the CSD track: Scrum Introduction and Elective.
Purpose of the Course
Leading a Scrum team is radically different than traditional project management. Rather than plan, instruct, and direct, the leader of a Scrum team (called a ScrumMaster) facilitates, coaches, and leads.
The 2-day Certified ScrumMaster training provides you with the learning and experience required to lead, participate in, or sponsor Scrum initiatives in your organization. We supply individuals a set of tools and techniques to aid them in becoming effective Scrum Masters, help teams become high performing, and deal with the change management associated with implementing Scrum in their organization. This is your opportunity to learn about Scrum, in the real world, from industry experts. Come prepared to challenge old beliefs and be open to new ways of thinking about how you approach work in the future.
At the successful completion of the workshop, you will have an understanding of how the various roles and responsibilities can be applied in the real world to your current and future projects. You will receive access to the Scrum Alliance website, and can then take the online multiple choice exam to qualify as a Certified Scrum Master. Upon successful completion of the exam you will receive a 2 year membership to the Scrum Alliance.
Dates: | 3-4 Dec 2009 |

Valpak for Windows Phone brings coupons to the Wallet
Valpak (www.valpak.com) is set to drag coupon deals and offers into the Windows Phone Wallet with a new release for the mobile platform, according to a recently published press release. The company sells itself as the leader in local print and digital coupons, providing consumers ample opportunities to save the pennies for a rainy day. An app for Windows Phone has been available for a while, but Wallet integration is set to be a new addition.
The Valpak app for Windows Phone doesn't require consumers to register an account to begin viewing coupons - all that's required is a location (be it a state or city) for the best local deals to be presented. It's quite the name to have presently available on the platform as the main website is a rather huge deal (pardon the pun).
The new Wallet integration will also help advertisers on the service, as well as consumers. It will provide yet another platform for said businesses to reach out to more mobile users, with a focused audience set on locating attractive offers. Michael Vivio, president of Cox Target Media, provider of Valpak had the following to say on the announcement:
"This app and inclusion in Windows Phone Wallet continues to fulfill our promise to consumers - no matter where they are, or what device they are using - Valpak coupons will be there to help them save money."
Valpak boasts about being the largest North American provider of local print and digital coupons, reporting over 30,000 local merchants being listed at any given time helping consumers save with over 70,000 local offers. If Valpak isn't quite up your street, there's always the likes of Groupon and more. But each to their own and it's positive to see further development being announced by a well established company.
You can download Valpak from the Windows Phone Store.

This is what Joe was talking about :) Although this is big news. With wallet integration, nice. If it came with a lens that would be terrific. Thanks Rich.
lippidp says:
Wow! I've actually heard of this company!
PeterFnet says:
Will they stop sending me coupon books in the mail if I download this?
inside man 55 says:
I was thinking the same
sr! says:
Now how do I cut the coupons? I don't want to cut my lumia :-(
Darkgift says:
Awesome! I used the webOS app all the time! Glad this is on WP now.
MediaCastleX says:
The pictures make it look like you can print from this app?
Erickson187 says:
This is great I just recently tried to see if they had an app but couldn't find it in the marketplace glad to see it and that it will use the wallet.
TonyDedrick says:
Never heard of Valpak. But will check it out
blackhawk556 says:
App has very bad reviews
Darkgift says:
I think its great. Tho I did notice that the date in the wallet is 1 day earlier than on the coupon. If its 3/12 on the coupon, its 3/11 in the wallet.
adrian1338 says:
well. - other way around would be worse ..right?
erichon99 says:
It works for me using Lumia 920

Development plans for the site include: refurbishing the entrance and establishing a small parking area for a few cars on the property, demolishing the old building but saving the slab for possible future use as a pavilion; refurbishing the well and using the water to set up bird and wildlife watering points around the property and perhaps to supplement the seasonal pond; setting up benches and viewing stations for birds and wildlife; landscaping the area with native species designed to attract birds, hummingbirds and butterflies. Ultimately, a series of boardwalks and viewing platforms is envisioned.
Purchase of this site and the subsequent development is funded by proceeds from the venue tax paid by visitors staying in local hotels and motels.
This site will be named the Linda S. Castro Nature Sanctuary. Development activity will begin immediately and are expected to take several months.

Abilene Zoo Proves That Turtles Aren't As Slow As You'd Think
By: Julia Hurt and Alex Hayes
Updated: July 23, 2012
"They are extremely fast.", explains Harsh. She adds, "The warmer they are the faster they move. As all reptiles as they warm up they are able to move faster so you normally don't see turtles out in the winter. They are down hibernating."
Harsh says, "He eats all sorts of things. He is an omnivore so he gets meat and crickets and eggs and he likes fruits and veggies too. Before we came on the air he got fed a worm. He thinks worms are awesome."
She explains, "Male box turtles have red eyes , the females have brown and you can tell if it's a Box Turtle by they have a special little hinge that allows them to completely close up inside of their shell."
Abilene Zoo
Open Daily: 9am to 5pm
$5 for Adults, $4 for Seniors
$2.50 for Children

I've designed a menu with recipes that are delicious and you will look forward to! You will not feel like you are depriving yourself – you will be treating your body to a 5 day healthy food indulgence!
Here is a peak at the amazing menu you will be enjoying:
Thick & Rich Black Bean Stew, Hearty Winter Vegetable Stew, Homemade Marinara with Quinoa and Flavorful Roasted Vegetables, Apple & Cinnamon Oats, Mesa de Vida's Famous Hummus….and more!
This plan is simple! I have created it for ease as well as deliciousness!

You will be prepared for the week ahead and get to simply enjoy your meals and snacks for the 5 days, everything will be finished.

As I continue healthifying my life, your menus and insight will always be a part of it. "
"I just finished the 5 day detox! I lost 4lbs and a couple inches around the middle! It was so easy, good and filling! I actually have tons of food left over. I will be doing this program again for sure, thanks for the awesome recipes, inspiration, and program!"
"Day 3 of 5 of Mesa de Vida's Kick Your Cravings to the Curb meal plan. Shopped on Day 0, cooked the week's worth of food in a couple of hours on the morning of Day 1 and have been doing great for the last few days. Feels great to give myself a break from any form of processed food and fuel with real, healthy fare. The recipes are delicious and were super easy to make. If you need to kick start a healthier way of eating or get back on track, I highly recommend you check it out. Cheers to our health!"

- No, you don't! If you want to swap out any meal, go for it!
- Check out this tutorial here!
- The grocery cost depends on how well stocked your pantry is, where you shop, if you shop in the bulk food department, etc. I purchase the groceries for my plan for around $80. Others tell me between $90-100, some say as low as $60. Remember, this is EVERYTHING you will need for 5+ days of all meals and snacks! PLUS you will most likely have a few meals leftover that you can freeze to continue on with your healthy lifestyle after the 5 days! For about $16 per day….this is very affordable!

Counting objects in an image seems like an easy task, which can be automated through machine vision and image analysis, but it becomes difficult when objects touch, move randomly, or are hard to distinguish from their background.
LMI introduced the manufacturer to Cyth Systems, a leading integration and engineering firm headquartered in Southern California with pioneering success in designing and building automated test systems, machine vision systems, and embedded control systems.
Specifying a lens for an imaging system can seem like a complex task, so the key is breaking the selection down into manageable pieces.
Over the years, manufacturers of all types of products have deployed literally thousands of machine vision systems for applications such as assembly verification, gaging and motion guidance.
Image processing is usually done in order to extract information of interest from a busy image or to enhance the image.
Previously considered bulky, expensive and complex to interpret, machine vision technology has undergone continuous improvements to become an integral part of quality control for industrial or manufacturing production lines.
Bill Arbogast explains his perspective on quality, ISO 9001, and how to manage inevitable business changes.

I had a very confined space, and couldn't find a dresser locally with the proper measurements. The dimensions advertised were perfect for my needs. [...]the directions to assemble were clear and easy to follow. I would have liked one or two deeper drawers however.

Social media messages are once again playing a role in an investigation of two teenagers in Steubenville, Ohio, according to authorities.
This time, it's for allegedly threatening the 16-year-old rape victim of two star Steubenville High School football players, who were convicted over the weekend for the sexual abuse of the girl that was partially documented in texts, tweets and pictures posted to the Internet.
The two girls, ages 15 and 16, were charged Tuesday with intimidation of a witness, a felony charge in the third degree, according to Fred Abdalla Jr., chief probation officer for Jefferson County Juvenile Court.
They also were charged with a misdemeanor count of aggravated menacing and a misdemeanor count of telecommunication harassment, he said.
A judge ordered the girls held in the county's juvenile lockup until March 27, when they will appear in court to answer the charges, Abdalla said.
The arrests are the latest fallout in a rape case that has roiled the down-on-its-luck town along the Ohio River.
"People are allowed to be obnoxious, and they're allowed to say crazy things, and that's fine," Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine told CNN on Tuesday. "But they can't under Ohio law threaten to kill someone, and we had to take action."
In one of the tweets, the writer appears to threaten to kill the girl at the center of the rape case. Another warns that she will be beaten.
The messages were among a swarm of tweets posted Sunday, shortly after the verdicts for two teenage boys found guilty of raping the girl by putting their fingers in her vagina while she was too intoxicated to consent during a series of end-of-summer parties in August.
That case prominently featured photographs, videos and text messages documenting portions of the abuse.

Madison Zinefest 2011 will be upon us in a matter of mere weeks! It is a crazy thing. And to coincide with the Zinefest proper, we have some other related events that will be well worth your time to check out! Take a look!
- Zinefest Open Mic @ Rainbow Bookstore
Thursday, October 20, 7PM, Rainbow Bookstore Cooperative, 426 W. Gilman St., Madison, WI
Exactly what it says on the wrapper: zinemakers of all stripes are encouraged to stop in and try some of their material out in a format they might not normally get to: out loud, in front of a receptive audience!
- Zines, Comics, Life (and Music)
Friday, October 21, 7PM, The Project Lodge, 817 E. Johnson St., Madison, WI
Facebook event listing HERE.
Stop by for a unique evening of presentations, discussions, and music!
- John Porcellino was born in Chicago, in 1968, and has been writing, drawing, and publishing minicomics, comics, and graphic novels for over twenty-five years. His celebrated self-published series King-Cat Comics, begun in 1989, has inspired a generation of cartoonists. Diary of a Mosquito Abatement Man, a collection of King-Cat stories about Porcellino's experiences as a pest control worker, won an Ignatz Award in 2005, and Perfect Example, first published in 2000, chronicles his struggles with depression as a teenager. King-Cat Classix and Map of My Heart, published in 2007/2009, offer a comprehensive overview of the zine's first sixty-one issues, while Thoreau at Walden(2008) is a poetic expression of the great philosopher's experience and ideals. According to cartoonist Chris Ware, "John Porcellino's comics distill, in just a few lines and words, the feeling of simply being alive." Porcellino's work has been translated into French, German, Spanish, Swedish, Italian, and Korean. He currently lives in South Beloit, Illinois.
John will be talking about his own work, the integration of making comics with his everyday life, and the changes he has witnessed over the years when trying to expose independent creators to a wider audience.
- Local comic artist Stacie Arellano will also be talking about her work.
After the presentations, stick around for musical performances from some vital young creators. Scheduled to perform is Slag Heap, Brett Naucke, Josh Burke, Floating Gardens and Daniel Wyche.
-Slag Heap is the musical performing alias of Connor Camburn, formerly of Chicago and current Madison resident. He runs Tailings, a book and tape imprint, with Katy McCarty.
-Brett Naucke is a Chicago resident and co-owner and operator of the Catholic Tapes music label since 2007. He has performed music in the past under the name Face Worker, and is currently performing under his own name.
-Josh Burke is a Chicago resident and runs his own audio / visual label, Midnight Star Media. He performs under various aliases, such as 56K, Sky Limousine, and his own name, and has had his work released on various imprints run by his peers.
-Floating Gardens is the musical performing alias of Eric Hanss, a Chicago resident. He is the owner and operator of Field Studies, a label that produces tapes, cds, and other objects.
-Daniel Wyche is a Chicago resident who performs under his own name and as one-third of the Philadelphia / New Jersey / New York-based analog improvisation collective Terratazen.
***$5 (or more!!) donation heartily encouraged to help out all the folks who will be making the drive from out of town!***
And, of course, don't forget about the main event:

Saturday, October 22, 10AM – 6PM, Varsity Hall, Union South, 1308 W. Dayton St., Madison, WI
Facebook event listing HERE.
Come one, come all for one of the state's premier gatherings of underground press culture.
What exactly are zines, you ask? They are magazines, books, leaflets, comics and other materials that are produced independent of the major publication system. They can be (and they are) about anything and everything, from food to queer life to music to sewing to so much more. Come visit with authors, artists, and creators from around Wisconsin and the midwest and peruse the many works on display. Exchange ideas, trade or give away your own zines and celebrate the thriving life of the printed object in the face of the digital onslaught!
There is still time to sign up for a table! Just follow the little "Sign up for a table" link to the right!
Also, take a look at the rideshare / places to crash post at your right. Some kind folks could use your help to make their Zinefest experience a reality, so consider offering a hand!
As always, thanks for your excitement and enthusiasm. Spread the word about the events above by any means you deem appropriate. Zinefest belongs to you, so go ahead and make it yours!
