Laura Palmer Prom: a DJ night

We’re just gonna rip this feature from Flavorpill because they pay their writers to do it:

“in a nod to the 20th anniversary of cult classic Twin Peaks, welcome DJ Russ (the guy behind soldoutmusic.com) to curate a selection of weird, avant-garde, and just plain moody tunes. Expect anything from witch house to ambient, and even some lite FM Buckingham/Nicks jams while a selection of Twin Peaks episodes plays in the background. Bonus: open bar from 10:00-10:30pm.” Indeed.

WikiLeaks and the Age of Transparency

Join Micah L. Sifry for a reading and discussion of WikiLeaks and the Age of Transparency, the first book on the spectacular information leaks that stunned the world.

As the co-founder and executive editor of the Personal Democracy Forum (where Assange has spoken twice), editor of its award-winning techPresident.com blog, and a senior technology adviser to the Sunlight Foundation, Micah L. Sifry is perfectly situated for this analysis. His latest book is an “insightful exploration of the red-hot spot where politics and the Internet intersect. An indispensable resource for the future fight over secrecy and openness.” RSVP to rsvp@powerhousearena.com.

Swimming Cities Silent Auction Opening Party

Swimming Cities is presenting a silent acution of over 100 selected works by a gaggle of outstanding artists in an effort to fund a sculptural boat project on the Ganges River. Thus far, these crazy kids have raised $50,000 collecting donations and throwing wackily themed shindigs. In addition to the unbelievably long open bar, you’ll likely have enough fun to forget about the $10 you shell out at the door.
