For the first class session, please plan to present your most recent Max work, which in the case of the first-year students will probably be your work from last quarter (indeed might be a repeat of your final presentation from last quarter?), and in the case of the second-year students will likely be current thesis work or some prior Max work. Don’t worry if you think others already know all about your work; I don’t, and it doesn’t hurt for everyone else to hear what you’ve been up to. We’ll figure about 15 minutes per person. We all speak Max, so don’t hesitate to go into excruciatingly nerdy detail.

I’d also like to hear what you hope to learn and do with technology this quarter, so please be prepared to discuss that.
