Hey there everyone,

This next meetup from Unplugged will be a screening of chosen talks all about the topic of Consciousness Hacking, which ranges from quantified self technologies to meditation and even psychedelics.

We're going to have Mike McDermot, an ambient music artist, present with an array of binaural beat contraptions for everyone to try out. We're going to have a presentation about it to acquaint everyone with the idea of binaural beats, and then everyone can experiment with the various setups!

It will be a great chance to become acquainted with listening meditation. I find these to be very relaxing! They have a tendency to be more relaxing than most forms of meditation, and easy to tune into once you get the hang of it. And the binaural beats are going to be a nice touch.

We are looking for food & will have a lively environment to engage in any conversations you'd like to have about these topics.

There may be a group meditation if everyone would like that, which we will figure out as the meetup gets under way.

We may still have some talks to be screened and are still perusing any possibilities! The format for this event right now is up in the air, but bound to be awesome.

And I think the Oculus Rift corner will make another appearance.
