 Biography
 --------------
 Gabriel Finch (a.k.a. Salsaman) (UK) is a long time free software
 supporter and the main developer and instigator of the LiVES project
 (http://lives.sourceforge.net). He has been very active in promoting the
 use of Free Software and open standards for use in
 multimedia, while doing self-supported research into freely available
 video frameworks and processing methods. He is also a moderately
 succesful video artist and a VJ, using only Free Software tools in his
 work.
 
 
 
 About LiVES
  -----------------
 The LiVES project was begun in 2002 in order to "scratch an itch", and
 provide a flexible and easy to use multimedia processing
 platform for Free Software users, and also to try to promote open
 standards in multimedia work. The first tangible product of LiVES is
 the LiVES video editor and VJ tool, which combines elements of both real
 time video work and a more structured approach of video
 editing in one package.
 
 After 4 years of development, the LiVES software is almost feature
 complete for its initial 1.0 release (expected at the end of this
 year). The LiVES software does not follow the traditional development
 model of an application (design and then coding); rather it has
 grown in an organic fashion, and features have been added as they are
 needed or suggested, and as the possibilities present
 themselves. It contains some novel features, for example, the ability to
 record a performance in real time, and then edit that
 performance like a traditional video editing layout. During this
 development, a number of novel and useful frameworks have been
 developed, which will allow for future expansion of LiVES through a
 flexible system of plugins, and which could be adapted to other
 projects.
 
 
 About the presentation
 -------------------------------
 Salsaman will present the current development version of the LiVES
 software, demonstrating some of the features which are already
 implemented, both for VJs and for video artists, and describe the work
 remaining before the planned 1.0 release. The style will be in
 the manner of a very visual walk through of the application, rather than a
 more theoretical slide-show. He will also mention the
 frameworks which have been created during the software development
 process, and how they could be used for other applications.
