Atomic Events
At the end of 2005 Atomic ventured into new territory by hosting "Atomic Live", a PC gaming and technology expo in Sydney, Australia. The event culminated in the evening with a presentation of industry awards and a celebration of the magazine's 5th birthday.
Although a subsequent Atomic Live was announced in early 2006, it was postponed due to key product launch delays in the PC and gaming industry.
Between 2010 and 2011 Atomic MPC hosted a range of events across Australia including the 2010 Power to the PC Tour, Atomic Unlocked 2010, Revolver Sydney 2011 and Revolver Melbourne 2011.
On the 12th November, 2011 Atomic joined with Monash University’s Faculty of Information Technology to present AtomicCon 2011; an event which took place at Monash University’s Caulfield Campus for technology and gaming enthusiasts. Participants were treated to presentations by some of the best game publishers in Australia as well as leading suppliers of information technology equipment, and additionally, participants were also able to play recently released games.

Famous quotes containing the words atomic and/or events:
“The totality of our so-called knowledge or beliefs, from the most casual matters of geography and history to the profoundest laws of atomic physics or even of pure mathematics and logic, is a man-made fabric which impinges on experience only along the edges. Or, to change the figure, total science is like a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“When the world was half a thousand years younger all events had much sharper outlines than now. The distance between sadness and joy, between good and bad fortune, seemed to be much greater than for us; every experience had that degree of directness and absoluteness which joy and sadness still have in the mind of a child”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
