4th £5 App – Linc’s Button Box
Yesterday we held our 4th FivePoundApp meet and Linc Smith gave a great talk about his ‘response box’ developed inside ioLab.
Linc’s talk is a change from our regular software talks as the response box is a hardware system. Linc showed us how he designed and produced these boxes which improve upon the current state of the art. The boxes have a Mac-like feel to them and are rather nice to look at.
Linc says:
“He is happy to give advice on small-run electronics manufacturing or just low volume manufacturing in general. He is also open to collaborations with people who have an idea for a product (electronic or otherwise) but no experience in manufacturing.”

Pitches:
I presented my thoughts on a skills-board that I think would benefit Brighton. – more on this in a future blog post. Next Danny and Ben presented their ideas for ArtMeddler where artists can show how they develop their work.
Announces:
Madgex are recruiting (Sussex Digital jobs link anyone?). Jon (Inuda) and I presented our plan for OpenCoffee Sussex which was successfully held this morning at the Sussex Innovation Centre.
Write-up: Jane Dallaway.
Next event August 14th.

4th £5 App Meeting – Tuesday 10th July
Our 4th meeting is almost here, Linc Smith will be talking about his Mac-inspired ‘button box’ – a custom-built box used for timing-experiments with medical folk (it looks like a Steve Jobsian arcade controller).
We will also have a selection of Pitch ideas:
- A Facebook Food idea – Jon Markwell
- Art-Hole – Shardcore will give an update
- I have a reverse-jobs-board/skills-board that I’d like to see someone build
- Danny’s SnipGet perhaps?
- John‘s coding-day/hackathon?
and we’ll welcome anyone else who wants to make a 10 minute Pitch (or Plea as in my case!).
How: Mark yourself as Attending at Upcoming if you’d like beer (or UnAttend if you can’t make it please). We use the numbers to judge how much beer to buy and cake to bake.

Related: Wednesday has Simon’s Geek Dinner and Thursday is the (fully-booked) Girl Geek Dinner.
fivepoundapp.com live
fivepoundapp.com is now a live and running site. Currently it is just a static page linking to the recent talks, soon John will Djangoify it.
We’re open to ideas, first off we’d like to let people submit links to their own write-ups and flickr photos. What else do we need?
Dan’s talk – mp3 available
Dan Glegg’s talk from the last £5 App is now available as an mp3, see his blog entry.
Hi talk is clear, slides are available too. John hopes to get a fivepoundapp website up and running soon and then we can have links to all the resources in the one place.
