Please note that the editors of this film interviewed lots of prominent women in the Algorave scene, and then mostly cut them out of the edit, soundtrack and credits.

Resident Advisor (who commissioned the film) have since apologised:

The Algorave community does not consider this film to fully represent the diversity of the scene and the contributions being made by non-men.




I was completely unaware of this so thanks for sharing.


You are very welcome.

Aside from the issues mentioned, there are of course some great people featured in the film, saying great things.

There will be a public response from Algorave community at some point (a blog post or video perhaps) to address the issues.
