Map of members
  • HeRtEkHeRtEk
    Hi Pichenettes and other, what do you think of a map of members on the forum ?
    Do you think that is possible ?
    This could help to meet, to share our hobby, and other intesting possibility !!
    Like as problem solving.
    Take electronics courses.
    Exchange our knowledge.

    oh yes Mutable meetings all over the world!!!
    what about using www.meetup.com

  • piscionepiscione

    Great idea. I was a member of a flashlight forum (long story, but there are some amazing flashlights out there), and the members do regular meetings all over the world. I’m not too active over there now-a-days, ran out of money, but I do have a flashlight that will ignite a piece of paper.

    I am member of the
    Facebook Group ( www.facebook.com/mutable.instruments )
    There is also Google+ page ( https://plus.google.com/117975015620525642566 ) for mutable instruments where you can see members locations,

    I like Google+ Hangups function where multiple people can meet virtualy with their webcams.
    I paricipated twice where AbletonOp (www.abletonop.com) members met.

    I will propose Pichenette arrange hangout like this once where we could see each other , maybe in the next one we could solder one of kit on a session together :)

    Who's up for this ?
  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    +1 for the Hangout thing! I’d be in!
    don’t know where you can see people’s location on g+ except going through each person’s profile…

  • pichenettespichenettes

    How do one get to see the members map on google plus?

  • muldeemuldee
    What about Google Maps? You can build your own Map, and every forum user can create his position in it!
  • cereyanlimusikicereyanlimusiki
    @pichenettes There was ( is ) a good google Chrome extension ( https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mcfifkeppchbjlepfbepfhjpkhfalcoa ) "Map My Circles" where you could see that but I just realized it does not work anymore with new G+ GUI :(

    I am definetely up for Hangouts and I am willing ( if pichenettes allow me ) to schedule one if there are others interested to participate.
  • muldeemuldee

    I’ve created this map:

    http://maps.google.it/maps/ms?msid=213180603096531263691.0004c02606df2c9e46db3&msa=0

    it is pubblic and it can be freely modifiable. I’ve already sent to Olivier the link to collaborate to the map. What do you think?

  • cereyanlimusikicereyanlimusiki
    Do you need Google Earth for this becauce it does download a file not opens a web page or something. ?
  • muldeemuldee

    Sorry, the link in the forum doesn’t work, but if you copy it and paste in the navbar of your browser it should work…

    Pichenettes has already added his position.

  • pichenettespichenettes

    Cool, let’s edit this map…

  • muldeemuldee

    I have to ask you two things:

    @Pichenettes: can you invite others to edit or it’s still up to me?

    @Every one else: can you edit the map without being invited? It’s public so it’supposed it’s freely editable (or at least I think so…)

  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    I don’t know how I can add myself to it…

  • cereyanlimusikicereyanlimusiki
    @pichenettes , Are you OK with a hangout ? Will you be able attend if I schedule ( It does not worth to have first one without you )
    If yes , which date/time you would be available ?
  • muldeemuldee

    I’m afraid the map it’s not so public…

    By the way every invited people should be able to invite other people.

  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    @muldee got the invitation!
    @cereyanlinmusiki agree we need Olivier for the first hangout, but we all know how busy he is right now! So maybe we have to structure it well, give it a limited timeframe

  • pichenettespichenettes

    For the hangout, we have to find a timeframe suitable for people in the US… Something like saturday or sunday, 9 or 10 PM CET?

    Is there a way of making the map publicly editable without invitations?

  • roschrosch

    sorry idk how to add a location

  • muldeemuldee

    @cereyanlinmusiki: I see you added you position to the map. Have you been invited by someone? (I’m trying to understand if the map is freely modifiable).

  • cereyanlimusikicereyanlimusiki
    @muldee No I haven't. In my first try; map was not pubic but I saw that you were playing with its settings then a minute later I saw the edit button and added myself.

    here is a link for english GUI where I can see the edit button

    http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=213180603096531263691.0004c02606df2c9e46db3&msa=0
  • bleobleo

    haha, hacked and added myself using above link ;)

  • muldeemuldee

    Ok, I got it! The map is freely editable by google users. All the others have to be invited.

    I mean: google users see the “edit” button even if they’re not invited. Everyone else has to be invited to see that button

  • bleobleo

    I also added which Mutable Instruments live at that address :D

  • pichenettespichenettes

    Who’s repère 6?

  • Titus RaindropsTitus Raindrops

    I can’t figure it out on an iPad. Best I can get is to send an invitation to the collaborators. Why would I want to do that?

  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    @Titus Raindrops get yourself a real computer :)

  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    this google maps thing is a bit tricky… I have trouble clicking a pin without moving it… I should use a mouse I know, but since I work with the tablet all the time…
    Anyway sorry if you find someone updated your pin. It was probably me by mistake

  • HeRtEkHeRtEk
    Do you see a member near Geneve in France ?
  • Titus RaindropsTitus Raindrops

    Okay after seriously fucking up your map, I finally added myself. I had to use Google’s iPad app to do it, btw…

  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    @ HeRtEk nope I can’t see you

  • EATYoneEATYone

    Don’t know who is JuJu, but we are really neighbors!!!! Less than 1km!!!

  • Titus RaindropsTitus Raindrops

    I’m standing near the nuclear reactor meltdown, btw. Thought it appropriate.

  • rumpelfilterrumpelfilter

    @ HeRtEk now I see you twice :)

  • EATYoneEATYone

    Olivier can add everybody, he’s got nothing to do, and he’s got all our adress ;-) go go go Olivier lol

  • Titus RaindropsTitus Raindrops

    I want to be the first Mutant™ in Liechtenstein. Can anyone get me a work visa?

  • HeRtEkHeRtEk
    I think it's ok for me, but it's complicated
  • muldeemuldee

    Ok, to avoid users moving someone else’s position, be sure you click on “save” and then “end” after performing your mod. A refresh is advisable.

    Sorry, but I didn’t expect that Maps should be so tricky

  • HeRtEkHeRtEk
    Maybe as a collaborator or two would suffice ?
    Everybody can change information !!!
  • Titus RaindropsTitus Raindrops

    Anarchy!!!

  • HeRtEkHeRtEk

  • HeRtEkHeRtEk

  • qpqp

    If it’s a “hangout” at MI HQ area, make end of september/beginning of october. We will be in Bilbao, Spain. Can hop a train for Paris!

  • Fresh PantsFresh Pants

    Added myself.

    @qp:
    And due to some overzealous clicking and scrolling, I accidentally moved qp into Lake Michigan, and I don’t remember where he was before. Apologies.
