Monthly ‘FLOAT’ meetup for people who identify as queer and/or as belonging to a marginalised gender, interested in creative technology. This could be creative coding, web design, digital art, game development, electronic/digital music or something else we haven’t thought of!

Free entry, drinks and snacks provided, come meet other artists/creatives/technologists in a friendly, casual environment.

This month’s meetup will include a presentation and discussion with Freya Shaw.

Freya is a sound designer, musician, and software programmer who heads Immersion Sound Studio. The studio is working on a platform similar to Unreal Engine, focused on helping blind users create video games using text and sound. At FLOAT, Freya will discuss and demonstrate using screen readers and other accessible software, particularly when working with Logic Pro, to access technology without vision.
