Hello Carlos,

Great to see all that Synfig energy + funny to see the blocks of the LGM logo animated -- It was drawn as an abstract flag and M for meeting :-)

I am cc'in your e-mail to Dani, who is taking care of archiving/streaming at Medialab, because I think ... maybe more than an animation per project, it would be excellent to have some animation to start off each block of talks / to run during breaks?

Do you think that would work? Dani?

In any case, here are fonts, logos and other things used in this years' campaign for LGM that could be useful: http://www.forkable.eu/generators/r+w/o/press/

It could be interesting to include each participating project too, but we'd need to hunt for their svgs. Here's last years list of projects http://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2012/projects/ but it needs updating; many new projects participating this year and some on this list have frozen ;-)

best,


Femke
