[Projectleiding] Music Created for Hackers

[Attilla de Groot]

Hi Chris,

Since I joined late, was this discussed today?

Imho, this is a great idea. The only thing we need to keep in mind it the proximity of the lecture tents and potentially disturbing talks with music. While probably a lot of people like this, we do need to see what and how in combination with the program.

As this may have consequences for the buildup, e.g. noise management, proximity of drinks, food and stuff, I already aligned with Jeroen on planning tents. I also need to align with the power folks to get the cabling right.

For example: ): gothic metal, jazz funk, electropop, chiptunes, garage punk, prog rock, Ukrainian hip hop or draaiorgel… My estimate is that bands like these will cost on average 1.000,-. Can this be financed from the general budget?
