BIO:
Our speaker this month is Mickey Delp. Mickey is an electrical and software engineer, an inventor, and entrepreneur, an artist, and a musician.

TALK SUMMARY:
The cyberpunk ethos knows no time and no borders. We will go back to the 80's and go behind the iron curtain. There Soviet electronics enthusiasts built illegal radios, computers, and synthesizers from stolen parts and hand copied schematics. Then we will return to the present where guitarists, electronic musicians, and tech nerds of all types fetishize Soviet era parts.
