This is a first for ANY edition of the vcf .... this year we're hosting
a vintage computer / vintage chip live concert, thanks to our friends at
8static and the Philadelphia Hacktory. Those groups are sending four
audio/visual artists, who'll also be joined by MARCH's Bill Degnan
playing his TTL theremin. Bill will also perform the warm-up act of
"Fool on the Hill" via an Altair 8800 and radio (a la the Homebrew
Computer Club performance in 1975, which was duplicated by Erik Klein at
VCF California in 2005.)
The 8static guys also signed up for an exhibit booth, where they'll
teach people all the musical tricks!
Details of VCF still being posted at

Hi all,
Go
here:http://www.vintage.org/2009/east/exhibit.php to register for
VCF East 6.0 exhibits.
It's okay if you only have a general idea of your exhibit right now.
You can always fill in some more details later. However for the VCF's
advertising / marketing purposes, it is MUCH better to sign up sooner
rather than later! People who sign up sooner will also have dibs on the
best booth locations.
The event is Sept. 12-13 at the InfoAge Science Center in Wall, New
Jersey.
We're still in the process of arranging lecturers and special events.
Please contact me off-list (evan at
snarc.net) with any questions, notes
about mistakes in the web site, etc.
