TRUE CHIP TILL DEATH • Bent Festival

Bent Festival begins this week in NYC

By tctdbot, on June 21st, 2011

The 2011 Bent Festival will be held at 319 Scholes in Brooklyn, June 23rd – 25th. Bent Festival is an annual art and music festival celebrating DIY electronics, hardware hacking, and circuit bending. Each year we invite artists from across the country and around the globe to perform music with their home-made or circuit bent instruments, teach workshops to adults and children alike, create beautiful art installations and to generally come together, face to face, and showcase the state of the art in DIY electronics and circuit bending culture.

Featuring the work of some chip artists: Rosa Menkman, Jeff Donaldson, Burnkit 2600, Gijs Gieskes and Loud Objects.

Boing Boing’s chiptune remix game compo is surprisingly devoid of chiptunes. http://ow.ly/28IeJ #
Or at least credits for the source chip composers. And of course none of them have a chance to win the prizes. I guess chiptunes are a a naturally occurring resource of the internet… #
