7.00pm - "She Heals" Video premiere - Lily Hunter Green / Essex Steamettes

Lily is collaborating with The Essex Steamettes, a group of young female coders (9-19 years) from our Raspberry Jams, and computer scientist Karun Matharu, to create an exciting new work SHE HEALS, an immersive digital Sci-Art hive populated by LED drone bees.
SHE HEALS tells the mesmerizing story of how female honeybees work as a collective to protect their community from viral attacks.

Join us for the video premiere of the online activity and discuss She Heals with Lily.

SHE HEALS will be exhibited between 12pm – 5pm on Saturday 26th June at The Old Waterworks, Southend-on-Sea, SSO 7AB, subject to COVID restrictions. Come and meet Lily and the Essex Steamettes.

Meetups continues on the first Thursday of the month.

The format of our events will normally include an update on what’s happening locally in Southend and Essex, followed by either discussions or talks on different technology subjects. We will cover topics such as computer software, website design, hackathons, cloud and internet technologies, hardware, Raspberry Pi, and much more.

The agenda is open to you! If you have any ideas for talks, we’re especially keen to hear from you.

Other Events

Location and Facilities

We are also looking for people to do tech talks of around 15-25 mins or 5 min lightning talks.

Projector, power sockets and wired/wireless internet are available.

Please check the location on the map as The Old Waterworks is hard to find and layout has change recently. Postcode SS0 7AB is often wrong on satnav. Free car park entrance is further north towards the BP garage on the left of the Meetup header photo. You can no longer use the gates on the T junction.

We look forward to you joining our friendly meetup.
