[dorkbotnyc-announce] dorkbotists at Performing Machines, Tuesday evening

[douglas repetto]

A bunch of previous dorkbot presenters will be at this Eyebeam event 
tomorrow evening. It'll be a fun chance to see the terrific show that 
they've got up and to get up close and personal with a bunch of hacked 
instruments. Jeff Snyder and Victor Adan will also be there showing off 
their pen plotter instruments!
