Date & Time: Thursday, September 22, 2005 more on this date 7:30 PM WHAT: Panel Discussion: Rant & Rave: Dance Culture -- Past, Present & Future WHERE: Mill Valley Community Center, 180 Camino Ave., Mill Valley CA. 94941 WHEN: 7:30 PM. September 22, 2005 COST: $10 at the door On September 22, the NeoFiles Public Forum presents a panel on dance culture (Rave culture). NeoFiles will present five individuals who have been deeply involved in the rave movement over several decades. Originating from ?Acid House? parties in Ibiza and ?Techno? dance parties in Goa, raves became the most dynamic digital counterculture of the 1990s. First in England, then in the US, and then all over the world, raves have become associated with peace-and-love idealism, community, an embrace of technology, and psychedelic consciousness. Ultimately DJs would become a regular presence in urban nightlife, finding a place as an alternative to conventional rock and roll performances. Our panelists will talk about where this electronic dance culture has been and where it?s going; how it can live up to its ideals; what new styles and forms are on the horizon; and what place recreational drugs have in THE RAVE SCENE. **PANELISTS** lux d?coda AKA UrthGurl lux d?coda is the fierce frontwoman for Foxgluv.
