The party celebrates the people making original tools to make original music, this one another grab bag of unusual inventive sonic technologies. Such as:

GREAT TIGER is an electro rock duo from Brooklyn. They get the party started with the help of The Box, a homemade MIDI controller made out of arcade buttons. Taking inspiration from Daft Punk to Deep Purple, GREAT TIGER fuses themselves into your brain with the help of bright lasers and poison-gas fog machines.

SARAH AND LARA GRANT, two sisters who specialize in blending textiles and technology, offer a wearable music instrument with a performance by a dancer. Their felted sound garment which turns the body into a sound emitting interface.

…and, as always, some surprises.

Makers, you’re free to bring projects – working or not – to share, troubleshoot, and play! Power / PA / projector available; bring your own cables and (if you can) extra speakers.
