Culture & Ethos

What's the vibe like?

01

AI as a Creative Medium

We look at models, code, and generative workflows not as corporate hype, but as raw materials to play with, break, bend, and critique.

02

Show & Tell Over Pints

5-minute informal demos of half-baked prototypes, prompt experiments, and side projects. Zero slides, zero pitch decks, zero networking theatre.

03

Crafty Humans in an AI World

Whether you write code, design user interfaces, make art, or are just curious how AI fits into real creative work — we're here to figure it out together.

Questions

Good to know

Who is this for?

Local digital creatives, designers, engineers, artists, writers, and tinkerers in and around Walthamstow and East London curious about creative AI.

What actually happens at the meetup?

A casual evening at an independent brewery taproom. We host two or three short, casual 5-minute demos of projects or tools, followed by open chats and drinks.

Do I need to know how to code or be an AI expert?

Not at all. You don't need a tech background. Curiosity about how AI intersects with craft, design, and ideas is all you need.

Is it free?

Yes, 100% free to attend. Space is limited to 30 people so conversations remain natural and genuine. You just buy your own drinks at the bar.
