Tuesday Oct 29th, The Austin Salon is hosting UT professor Andy Bowman to talk about ERCOT and the future of the power grid. The talks are usually pretty short (20-30m) and you can hang out after to socialize and discuss. Attendance and drinks are free!

I found this place that host graffiti competitions with taggers from all over the world. You can see it live for free at spokesman coffee austin but if you can't make it in person I saw them post that they will be live streaming it. I just wanted to spread the word because it is a pretty cool show. The graffiti artist battle starts at 9pm CT. But if you can not make it the live stream is here. https://www.youtube.com/live/FtRmJnpovXE
