[LRUG] Dynamic Languages evening at the BCS

[Tim Cowlishaw]

Hey Muz,

I've got a short talk I gave to a bunch of arty-types on using ruby/ 
shoes for graphics and arts related programming in a similar way to  
something like processing. It's not massively rigorous though, so  
might be a bit dull for an audience of hardened computer-scientists.  
If you're pressed for people though, i might be able to contribute,  
although it does depend on what time the event is as i may have to be  
elsewhere that evening :-)

Cheers,

Tim
