We begin with a screening of Lisa Rovner’s award-winning documentary Sisters with Transistors, the remarkable untold story of electronic music’s female pioneers, composers who embraced machines and their liberating technologies to utterly transform how we produce and listen to music today.

“Sisters With Transistors is more than a music documentary. It’s a long overdue tribute to the women that broke barriers in music, technology, and society as a whole.”
– The Art Desk

After the film we open the floor late into the night for three live sets in the first of our HAR Late series.
