Hi all - I've got a work event that I'm excited to host that may be of interest to subscribers on this mailing list. I run an online Sci-Fi Short Story Club where we met monthly to chat SF short stories, novellas and such. I frequently have guests, and coming up I'll have author Simon Reynolds in to talk about his new book *Futuromania* and *J.G. Ballard's "The Sound-Sweep"* - an incredible early novelette of Ballard's featuring sonovacs, ultra-sonic music, and a tragic opera singer. Simon Reynolds is the author of *Energy Flash/Generation Ecstasy*, *Retromania*, *Rip It Up and Start Again *and many others. One of the great writers on electronic music. The event is open to the public, not just LAPL card holders. RSVP here <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdE2uM2mWJIhR9j_kMqlp6dcKgmDjGjxKbyxoyeOlaat86dGA/viewform>or email mtwain [@] lapl [dot] org for the Zoom link.
