I've been offered a free ticket to an Ada Lovelace Day event, on the night of 15th October, next Tuesday, at Imperial College, with comedy, science demos and talks from Fran Scott, Sophie Scott, Leila Johnston, Chi Onwurah MP, Bernadette Byrne, Hazel Gibson, Molly Stevens and Helen Arney: http://www.eventbrite.co.uk/event/7499436015?ref=ebtnebtckt with an introducton to the speakers in the interval or at the end, after they've been on stage, in order to record their spoken voices for the 'Voice Intorduction' project:

Unfortunatley, I'm not able to make it.
Can someone local, who has suitable audio recording equipment, attend that, please? It might be possible to arrange for you to also take photos, at the same time, if not during the performances.
Note that, though several of the listed performers do not have Wikipedia articles /yet/, they are suitable candidates.
Hi Andy,
Thanks for the information and well done for arranging this.
If anyone is interested in going along to this then Wikimedia UK has some sound equipment available for you to use. Depending on location I can deliver the equipment to you - it's smaller than a mobile phone. You're also welcome to drop in to the office to collect if you'd like - and we'd love to see you.
Thanks and regards,
Stevie
