Events include – an evening of electronic music and visuals, where attendees are encouraged to bring their own projectors to showcase their own work across the walls.
Through the manipulation of programming code, electronic musician Myoptik, VJ theLabVisuals and other visual artists will be bringing a daring and dextrous night of multimedia showcases to Loughborough.
