THE "SECOND SUMMER OF LOVE" 20th ANNIVERSARY SYMPOSIUM
Like the 'First Summer of Love' which started in Haight-Ashbury and went on to change the world, this important happening spread fast from places like London and Ibiza and likewise changed the world. We invite you to participate as we go back in time to 1988 and see why, where, when and how the 'Second Summer of Love' happened and the impact it had on both the Mainstream and the Counterculture.
A panel featuring Counterculture visionary FRASER CLARK (founder of the legendary groundbreaking alternative club 'Megatripolis') and KATE 'MAGIC' WOOD (author of the much awaited forthcoming book on the history of the 'Second Summer of Love': '88: The Untold History of a Revolution), MARK HELEY (Waveform Festival), MIXMASTER MORRIS (The Irresistible Force) and WAYNE ANTHONY (author of 'Class of 88') will help lead the path to the past with a view to understanding the present state of the rave scene and navigating into the future as well. Music and film from the period will feature as well. This event is a don't miss for all Luminopolitans.
