Umeå Hackerspace is looking for musicians and VJs for our next hackerrave
category: general [glöplog]
Hi all
Do you create music or audiovisual things? Have you always secretly wanted to play them infront of *people dancing*? Are you interested in free food, beer and transportation? Keep reading!
Umeå Hackerspace has been organizing raves recently, partly as a fundraising thing but also because it's fun! We're slowly building up the organization around it, and now we're reaching out to try and find new mucisians and VJs.
Our niche is experimental stuff, especially audiovisual things. We have some visuals already, so don't worry if you don't have any. We're also interested in avoiding "old fart"-ification in our little niche, so younger and/or not-dude talent is of extra interest. This is also the interest of our venue, Verket: https://www.verketumea.se/
We're applying for money from the municipality. If this goes our way there may be some money for performers (big if!). We'll apply for transport funds from Verket which is easier, but still has do be within reason, so we can probably only fund travel from Sweden, Norway and Finland.
Email interest to info at umeahackerspace dot se, or drop in on IRC (#uhck @ irc.umeahackerspace.se) or just post in this thread
