Anyone going to this next Sunday?...

Kinda Electronic/Laptop lectures & workshops if the
afternoon; followed by a party with AFX, Cylob & the Rephlex
cru DJing...

I'm well tempted - it's at Liverpool Street so it's a piece
of piss to get to from here on Train (about 30mins)...Think
I might go to both; the site makes the lectures and
workshops sound pretty cool...

Theres some info on the NEWS Page here...

and also the following email I got gives a lot more
detail...
