It came right down to the wire, but we have a venue! The first ★ ąяţǥąʍ€$ ★ will be held at the awesome Lacuna Labs!

We will have a beamer for showcasing and sharing work, and a fridge of cheap drinks (all money going to our kind hosts :)) so come on down and lets talk all things interactive art.

The agenda for the evening is as follows…

• Brief introductions – who you are/where you are from/what’s your fave ice cream flavour etc.

• Showcase your current (or a previous) project and talk about what you’re working on.

• Share something you find personally inspiring/interesting, and tell us all why!

As we will be showing work and inspirations, I ask people to please prepare files and links ahead of time for maximum artgame efficiency, and if you are nervous of presenting work, don’t worry! No need to show work if you don’t want to, and all levels of experience are welcome – the only prerequisite is being a friendly person ;)

As Lacuna Labs is a small venue, please RSVP if you intend on going, and un-RSVP if you intend on bailing ;) I will post a map soon, and we will have some paper signs out on the day.

Looking forward to seeing you all there!

PS. Please note we have changed the time to 8, not 7!
