#Hackstock: Beyond 2017

Also taking place on the 5th- 6th May is #Hackstock: Beyond 2017, bringing together different communities to ask the question of what can Science Fiction bring to technology? Connecting creators, makers, disrupters, artists, musicians, hackers, developers and anyone with a passion for technology, there will also be plenty of headsets and experience to try.
