Immersants

Bridging the gap between artist and spectator, it is the duty of every true art lover to engage more fully with the world in a way that transcends theory. "Life is art". Technology is evolving, community & communication is evolving and we will endevour to boldly go where no beaurocrat has gone before :)

This meetup group strives for quality not quantity and so inactive memberships are cancelled (after a polite warning). For instance, on 23rd May 2010, there were 108 members 33% of which visited this page in the previous week (50% would be the ideal number after eventually trimming membership even further). It is not a popularity contest like FaceBook which disrespect's Dunbar's number. To quote david: much like there is little reality in "reality TV" there is little actual "social networking" on Facebook

"I've been experimenting with audio/visual, but never really gone anywhere with it. Really interested in taking it to the next level up and perhaps get into something like vjing or art installations. I'm currently studying digital media at university"

"Agree with Maritza but want to say the rest that I saw was lame. It's a novice festival so I was not expecting much. Organisation was great. It was good weather for roaming around the island. All punters were very relaxed and friendly."
