Small lounge venue, with really nice chilling atmoshpere in the neighbourghood of camden lock. They serve vegetarian food, and are really into the ecology.
3 projectors are available on place. They are already connected and placed on several places at the venue, but setup is always different - sometimes one of them points to the screen in the window, and everyone passing through street could see your visuals. Sometimes not.
On the place there is Edirol V4, and DVD player, to be used by the performing VJ, so there is no problem at all with connection. Only issue is fact, that there is not really big amount of space to setup your equipment. It will be hard to use something more than laptop and midi controller.
We were thinking with dr.Mo about moving our meetings there (so we can use projectors and WIFI connection) and it seems to be more and more feasible since the venue extended weekday opening hours to 11.
The problem is that if we want to use the projections it shouldn't collide with any events and there's more and more of these. For example on Wednesdays there is gonna be a downbeat electro / minimal night.
But we can always use room downstairs or just mix with the crowd upstairs.

So maybe next time?
yeah, sorry I forgot to tell that Lukasz is the VJboss there ;) It was just example post, what is the idea of this part of forum. But it doesn't mean that it is not true what I write.
It would be nice to try how our meeting will look like in other envirment than Big Chill Bar, especially when we have possibility to use the hardware
I've been there once, december last year and there was this problem with an absent SVIDEO cable.. No VGA either, so we couldn't connect to the projector. Anyway, I played around a little on the TV setup for my own enjoyment as the venue and the atmosphere is really cozy and laid-back.
Lukasz told me the meetings have been moved there, hopefully I come over some time!
