Hello 2019

Greetings. I have decided to make some changes on how I manage and publish MV Calendars hosted free and publicly on Google Calendars.

First, I will not be publishing a new blog post for yearly updates but rather, may just tweet on @mvcalendar or @fayid. The same applies to any changes or updates that I may make.

This is to save time.

Second, I will try to encourage users to use these calendar in the best use case possible. That is to subscribe to them to your calendar application. By doing so, you will need to just subscribe it once and forget it – no more maintenance required; no need to download it yearly. They will be automatically synced to your accounts and therefore the devices that you have synced your accounts to. They will be synced as long as I keep updating them 😉 .

The idea is to make these calendars perpetual.

How?

Right-click to copy the calendar link and then paste to subscribe it to your calendar application. Have a look here.

Scroll below and do this.

When done correctly, you should have three calendars subscribed.

  1. Maldives Holidays Calendar
  2. Maldives Academic Calendar
  3. Maldives Awareness and Special Days Calendar

Dharubaaruge Rannabadeyri Maalam

Here’s a Google Sketchup 3D Model of the Rannabadeyri Maalam in Dharubaaruge, that I have been using for some time to plan events.

A few years back, I got an architectural firm to survey and draw up this model for me, so that I could use it to plan events more accurately, while avoiding the need for repeated site visits.

Recently, as I have been getting requests to share this model.  Hence, I have decided to do so under the following license, without support.

Please do leave a comment, if you find it useful or, if you have any links to improved derivative works.

Please use it at own risk and gave a great event!

Sound Workshop ’11

https://www.fayid.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/day1-1710-150x150.jpg

The Sound Workshop ’11, was held on the 19th, 20th & 21st of September 2011 in the Youth Centre (MCSE).  The event was organized by Alliance française de Male’ and Island Music, in Male’, Maldives.

The Event

The main aim of this event was to exchange knowledge, in related disciplines, via theoretical presentations and hands-on experiences, on what it takes to get a better sound.  The program included detailed presentations, live-demonstrations and opened a great networking opportunity, so that, via this network, knowledge can be shared at a personal level.

It was an intensive 3-day workshop with more than 86 registered participants and an attendance rate over 70 pax per day.  Johann Berby conducted master classes on rhythms, grooves and techniques, while Théo Croix demonstrated sound phenomena live.   Continue reading “Sound Workshop ’11”
