Putting the cost factor aside, I don't see why not more students appear at

the LAC.
I've asked some of my fellow classmates if they want to attend

conference, and

usually they reply "Me? What do I know about ? People won't want to talk

to me",

or "i'm not a pro in that field".
Of course that's not true at all. Absolutely everybody I've approached at

LAC's has

responded positively to me saying "I'm a student, trying to learn , do

you have any advice?".
I don't think its really possible to be more welcoming, the target audience

says:

"musicians, composers, sound artists, software developers, researchers and

engineers".

Short of adding beginners & dabblers to that list, I don't know what to do

;)
even whether it might be seen as too geeky for most people.
