NP but lots of hippie fun (conference, music, poetry)

[Christian Hänggi]

For those of you living near Basel, Switzerland:

 From 12-14 September there's a conference entitled "The Prolonged  
Death of the Hippie, 1967-1969." Keynote speakers will be  
countercultural-figures-slash-poets-slash-activists Ed Sanders and  
Anne Waldman.

Besides many interesting talks (among others, by Swiss Bob Dylan  
expert Martin Schäfer and Czech Beat translator Josef Rauvolf) there  
will be music by a Grateful Dead coverband and interpretations of a  
handful of songs from Pynchon's novels by Tyler Burba. Oh, and one  
speaker will say something about Inherent Vice the film.

Come on out if you're in the vicinities!
