Morning,

I think I've mentioned it in passing, but it deserves a proper posting.
I was hoping that Ross (one of the organisers, who attended one of the
Liverpool meetings a few weeks ago) would be able to post more details,
but he's been busy with other projects of late and it's getting too
close to the deadline to wait any longer.

As the flyer says, at Interface Amnesty...

"Invited artists, hobbyists and makers will be show-and-telling self
made, developed and hacked devices for playing sound and music over one
day and evening in a free trade fair/market style setting. Get a stall
in the hall and show your hacked/shared/open/closed wares with key
lunchtime and evening show-offs."

That sounds like they'd prefer it if people already had things built,
but as I haven't got any musical devices knocking around, I'm going to
make it more of a day of hacking, and try building an Auduino and maybe
some other stuff (depending on what I can think up and acquire parts for
by the 26th).  I think Ross Jones (different Ross to the organiser) is
hoping to make a start on his laser harp there too.

We've got one stall booked already, but I'm not sure if that will be
enough space if a few of us are planning on attending.  The deadline for
signing up for space is tomorrow, so either drop them a line directly,
or let me know if you want to come along and I'll let Ross know how many
of us will be attending from the hackspace.

It's being held at Static here in Liverpool (in between the bombed-out
church and the Chinese Arch), and there are some more details at

Cheers,

Adrian.
