Come see my show!

Level_13: Bonus Round
Art and Music from the Video Game Generation
Friday November 17th

Altered Esthetics
1224 Quincy Street NE
Minneapolis, MN 55413

The opening goes from 6pm to midnight, but the music performances start at about 8pm. I'm performing along with Jobot, Fuckstorm, and others.

This is also the grand opening for AE's new gallery space.

Hope you can check it out! I also found out our pal Jeff Leyda's tabletop MAME machine will be included, last featured in the Space Lounge at Convergence. Come and rock out and stick around to kick my ass at some Ms. Pacman. You know you wanna!

Meet U of M alumni Caly McMorrow. She’s a musical artist who will perform at the exhibit’s opening. Something of a pioneer for female electronic musicians, she experiments and records in her lower St. Paul artist co-op apartment. McMorrow’s ammunition includes two keyboards, several laptops, synthesizers, samplers and her newest musical toy: a Game Boy. McMorrow has recently begun incorporating the handheld video game’s “nanoloop” program into many of her songs. “It’s like a portable drum machine that’s under $100 dollars,” she quips. McMorrow’s unique sound comes from a synergy of classical training as a saxophone player with her experience as a sound technician in theater and techno. “I don’t work in songs as much as in layers,” she says. “I start with a seed and build it.”

spacebug: almost right ... i know how that goes ;)

riotd: yikes sorry to hear about your gp2x, that's really shit ... ! if i ever lost mind i'd have to replace it, in fact if i was starting from scratch at music all i'd get is a gamepark (assuming i had a computer for stuff like sampling/internet/coding already).
