DORKBOTLONDON - people doing strange things with electricity

7pm wednesday 7th August (that's today)

at the boxing club, limehouse town hall (directions below)

with talks by

JOHN EACOTT
- using software (like supercollider) and hardware (like the trumpet) to
make 'hummable' generative music he asks, "Will algorithmic approaches
replace purely recorded sound?"
http://www.informal.org/

JO WALSH
- "demonstrating oulibot's learning processes as a networked
conversation, she wonders "Can consciousness be abstracted in a
network?"
http://info.oulibot.org/

and MIKEY TALKAOKE
a well practiced host of dynamic discourse, mikey brings us Talkaoke's 
specially designed mobile debating doughnut.  we're hoping he can fill
us in on the story behind the doughnut as a short talk before the debate
begins.
