So, retro system meetups, hackerspace and electronics meetups ? (Which i'm sure retro and hackerspace are in syd/mel)

Home automation gives you a line in to hook up with tradespeople (electricians etc), building contractors, architects that design and install such systems.

There's a challenge there to socially meetup and connect to develop work, a career, or just exchange information.

Social friendships might come out of such pursuits.
