[plug] nullarbor - graphics programming competition

[nullarbor]

Dear PLUG,

A demo party and game development competition is about to hit Perth, 
Western Australia. nullarbor is an event designed to bring together a 
community of Australian programmers, designers, artists and musicians to 
promote interactive technologies and a form of electronic art called demos.

The full-day event (9AM to 9PM) takes place at Edith Cowan University, 
Mount Lawley, on Thursday the 23rd of February 2006.

Entry and participation is free. Throughout the day the entries can be 
played, viewed and voted on, there will also be a surprise contest 
running every hour. Select episodes of Control Freaks, and locally 
produced SceneTV will be screened around the campus, and nullarbor will 
wind up with a BBQ.

Prizes to be given out on the day include cash, CDs and DVDs, and many 
other great prizes!

Sponsors and supporters include Edith Cowan University, Microsoft Visual 
Studio Express Editions, ACM SIGGRAPH Perth, Computer Village Rentals, 
PixelJuice, RedFlag LanFest, Pilgrimage demo party, Adrian Boeing, Perth 
Independent Game Makers Initiative (PIGMI), and Team Affinity demo group.

(Apologies for the off-topic email, I was told the event might interest 
PLUG. One of the groups is bringing a demo entry which boots directly 
from a Linux CD - might be of interest to PLUG!)
