Dorkbot London 2006-03-19T16:43:35ZTitled entry permalink

I'm currently at the Limehouse Town Hall, checking out the cool techie stuff that's going on at Dorkbot London. Lots of people playing with electrical stuff, screwing around with Sudden Motion Sensors, video art, electrical stuff that blows up, monitors that arehooked up to musical synthesisers.

The wifi is very, very shaky, and it almost feels like a squat. Very cool though.

There's a guy with tubes which he lets small electrical explosions go off in, and it can make a very odd type of music.

Upstairs there's a whole bunch of people drinking some very odd brew of tea, in here there's flames going on, and next to me there's a guy who seems to be controlling his Mac using his PSP.

If you want 'unconference', this is it.

What's actually going on? I'm not sure that I know, but it's good fun.

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.

I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in.
