Do me a favour? (Vote for me request)

Yep, it's a cheeky request from me. I've pitched to speak at SXSW in London next year, and part of the process is a public voting thing. So if any of you lovely people could log on and chuck me a vote, I would be eternally grateful.ย 

You can do it here.ย 

You have to sign up/log on with an email to vote. If you don't want to give your details to SXSW then I get you. It's a stupid system and a pretty dire website.ย 

But, I'd quite like to speak at SXSW, so it has to be worth a try right?ย 

Cheers!ย

The talk is called 'Be More Mixtape' and it's all about why you shouldn't use AI to write. It uses mixtapes vs algo generated Spotify playlists to illustrate why. People seem to like it, possibly mainly because most of the places I've delivered it are full of AI bull...ย

Cheers @redthunder (I suspect my chances of getting in are about zero, but who knows).ย 

Oh man that WinAmp page brings back some memories!ย 

SXSW is South by Southwest. It's a big creative festival thing that started in Austin, Texas but has now spread to London. And possibly other places, I dunno.ย
