The next generation of tech, media, Hollywood and politics came together at The Carnegie Library this weekend for the 2.0: The New Media Party hosted by Event Farm and HyperVocal.
FamousDC had a GREAT time using interactive badges to activate the digital gift bag wall, download music from the content globes swinging over the dance floor and interact with the baby robots (who got a lot of secrets out of us).
US Royalty performed, while Derek Brown crafted signature cocktails.
Bottom line: Carnegie Library is a great scene. Cocktails are always welcomed on a Friday night. Selfies were all the rage over WHCD 2014.
