So far, I have seen a talk on <a href="http://www.rjdj.me">RjDj</a>, a platform for making generative/algorithmic music (which is based on Pure Data), which looked very interesting. And just now, I saw Cory Doctorow's keynote, where he gave a comprehensive overview of metaclass design patterns in Django. Actually, I lie; he talked about how bad copyright laws threaten free software and the right to innovate, with Python being essentially a McGuffin. Nonetheless, it was a good talk (though I've heard most of it before at Copyfighters' Hyde Park meetups and on Boing Boing).<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=acb&ditemid=513887" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
