1. Special eSymposium
Saturday, May 12, Noon - 3PM
Lizard's Liquid Lounge
3058 W Irving Park Rd., Chicago
~FREE~
In addition to our usual weekly social soldering session and experimental electronics open lab, this week's eSymposium will be in high gear when this Saturday we welcome Tim Kaiser on the final leg of his recent tour before returning to Duluth MN.. Tim will be setting up some of his equipment for people to examine and play with. Also, Roth Mobot's Tommy Stephenson will be making a rare eSymposium appearance. Tommy will be showing off some of his latest "Blamps," and their ability to be driven by musical instruments. This is a rare "under-the-hood" look at these two artists' work. And of course, feel free to bring a project to work on, or perform in the world's only regularly scheduled weekly Circuit Bent Open Mic!
