The Glitch Mob @ Club Nokia, Los Angeles

The Glitch Mob @ Club Nokia

Turned out at Club Nokia in downtown Los Angeles with live video to support the Glitch Mob. Was able to pull off a decent show despite a 30 minute load in and sound check. Boreta, edIT, Ooah and Kraddy rocked the hometown crowd and got them whipped up for headliners, Pendulum.

An audiovisual event hosted by Create Digital Media within the HOPE conference at Hotel Pennsylvania.

"8-bit and robots and odd Max and Reaktor patches and custom visual software and visualizations of data packets and sound made from plants and mutant trumpets and gloves for DJing and laptop music..."

Synesthete performed an audiovisual set using two houseplants wired up with electrodes. Input from the plants was acquired with an Arduino based electronics project that sonified the signal as well as transfering it to the computer where it was converted to MIDI.

Live Audio (Excerpt)

Also performing were: Ben Neill, Michael Una, Joshue Ott (superDraw), Ezekiel Honig, Paris Treantafeles, Don Miller (No Carrier), Joey Mariano (AnimalStyle), Anton Marini (vade), Mary Ann Benedetto, Peter Kirn, Bill Jones, and Roger Tsai.

Beat Research

The last hurray for Mind Meld III. Synesthete, Nalepa, Robotkid, Peter Kirn and Brian Kane played at Beat Research in Boston. Peter opened up the evening with a Kore driven set and Nalepa brought it home with monstrous dub step. Robotkid and Synesthete shared the screens while Brian Kane provided a DVJ interlude.

Jimmy Edgar and others at Friendly Integration

Jimmy Edgar at Friendly Integration

Synesthete joined Bijan Rezvani and Joe Caputo to provide visuals for a Droid Behavior + Friendly Integration event featuring Jimmy Edgar, Derek Michael, Baseck, Daedalus, and Ian Hind. All of the visual artists were using hand-rolled Max patches. Joe, a modified version of Randy Jones' sudden rabbit guest patch and Bijan, a built-from-scratch video mixer.
