I would like to first thank everyone who came out to our November meeting at Ohio State University's Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design.  I would like to especially thank Maria Palazzi for the incredible presentation on Synchronous Objects as well as a tour of the ACCAD facility and Jenn Deffenbaugh for helping put it all together.  It was an amazing presentation and tour and I encourage you to go to their website and take a look: http://www.synchronousobjects.osu.edu.

I would also like to thank Jake Hammond from Robert Half Technologies for sponsoring the event and bringing a great array of food for us.  

Next Tuesday, December 1st, is the deadline for registering for our December Data Visualization contest.  The winner will receive a $2100 voucher to buy a product at the Adobe Store.  We have other prizes as well for both contestants and attendees.  If you are interested in participating, please take a look at the official rules  and please register so we know how to prepare your entry for the meeting.

Tuesday, December 8th, will be the judging for the Data Visualization contest on a special December meeting.  This meeting will be held at Lextant in the historic Smith Brothers hardware building downtown and will be sponsored by both Lextant and Apex Systems.  We are planning on having a buffet that night.  We encourage you to come as the attendees will be judging the contestants work.  So we need a lot of judges for the event.

I will post more information in the next week about our last meeting of the year.
