I'm going to see what I can drum up as soon as possible. Feel free to send proposals in. In the mean time, Sarah Peeble's Resonating Bodies event will have a dbot component July 17. This is a really interesting multi-artist, interdisciplinary project bees and interactive media. Sweeeeet. More info will be coming along. Cheers, L.
