Check the packed LoveBytes programme for the rest of the weekend (22-24th March), up now at: http://lovebytes.org.uk/ Dorkbot is a meeting of people interested in electric/electronic art in the broadest sense; robotics, kinetic art, microcontrollers, interactive art, algorithmic music, net.art... The only real conditions are that it is a bit strange and involves electricity in some way. It is really defined by whoever turns up, be it engineers who want to be artists, or artists who want to be engineers, or the otherwise confused. Dorkbot started in New York, spread to London, and now dozens of cities around the world including several active UK chapters; Sheffield, Bristol, Anglia, Newcastle, Cardiff and Alba (Scotland).
