SoHo wired last night with Manhattan’s Tech Talk, sparking NYC’s spring at a Spring Street loft. Coder Mia Chen pitched AI as 200 listened, a $15 ticket dive into circuits. It’s borough bytes—pure SoHo vibe, screens hot. A kid asked about bots; a pro jotted code. ‘Manhattan thinks—this is it,’ Chen says, flipping slides. The room turned server.
The talk’s fresh—April 3’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing seats by 7 p.m. Chen’s a LES geek; last night’s crowd hit max—charts glowed. A latecomer nabbed a spot; Q&A buzzed—NYC grit shone. Apps teased—tech ruled. #SoHoTechTalk trended; Brooklyn wants a chip.
Some griped—’Too dense,’ sniped a newbie, dodging jargon. Lights flickered—fixed fast; facts held. A rival’s pitching a Chelsea chat, splitting bits. Still, 300 stayed—code reigned. SoHo’s never booted so bold.
Chen’s teasing a workshop, maybe a hack if spring bites. ‘NYC’s grid—this powers it,’ she says, packing drives. The talk’s a Manhattan win—grit meets tech. It’s a byte rush; join the next. Bring a laptop—lines call.
