By asking this, you're effectively the shallow professional with more money that hugs the festival to death, so of course you wouldn't know the cool ones that are mostly art community driven

That's harsh, OP is likely "...others who genuinely appreciate fun/artsy but are professionals themselves"

If it’s on here, it’s automatically not cool enough to be the next thing. I’d bet that whatever the next thing is can and will explicitly exclude the VC tech crowd.

Yall get that tech is considered like the evil empire to be toppled right?

The new non-technical crowd of academics and transplant founders from Canada and India are hated, not real devs who built MySpace profiles etc back in the day.

People know that the current tech elite are frauds. You guys took over the industry, gave the jobs to your talentless kids, and kicked out all the good people (mostly those evil white guys you hate so much).

Nobody is fooled by that, even little kids know

Ask one of the cool artsy people you hang out with?
