hi, in London? The first Saturday of each month we are doing an audio-visual night in the bar at The Hayward, on the southbank here in London. Details here http://www.the-minimalists.co.uk/e-flyer_concrete_07.03.html. it's all free and it's a bit of fun with music and visuals, based around a minimal concept.
