I’ve mentioned the AURA Band a few times in passing so here is a little bit more information to whet your appetite. It’s currently a Kickstarter project (£13k raised vs £71k target as of 18/2/18) and has a nice focus on providing some key insights to certain types of people interested in a slightly deeper…
