  • NO CARRIER Philly Lecture October 29th

    Philly Visual Artist NO CARRIER is giving a lecture at Indy Hall. He writes:

    “Their time in the spotlight may be over, but many have found uses for forgotten video game consoles and computer hardware.  Although 8-bit games are a thing of the past, there is a vibrant art scene with retrocomputing at its core. The hardware of the Game Boy, Nintendo Entertainment System, and the Commodore 64 are repurposed and software reprogrammed to turn these aging machines into synthesizers, sequencers, visualizers, and much more.

    Don Miller, or NO CARRIER, is an educator, programmer, and live visualist living in Philadelphia. Part of the 8bitpeoples artist collective, he writes new software for nearly obsolete videogame and computer hardware, for use at live music events and installations. He performs regularly in Philly and NYC, and has recently taken his visuals worldwide. Catch him again this year at the Blip Festival, December 4th-7th 2008, in NYC.”

  • PULSEWAVE 10.25.08 Rom Flier

    Show info

    The new ROM flier from NO CARRIER and featuring a hilarious Halloween medley by Baron Knoxburry is online for this months Pulsewave show. This months show is a special mash up of chip stars and famous rock band, and should be a good opportunity to indoctrinate the unsuspecting neophyte in your midst.

    Darkness falls across the land. The midnight hour is close at hand. Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorize your neighborhood. And whosoever shall be found, without the soul for getting down, must stand and face the hounds of hell, and rot inside a corpse’s shell…

    2 Player Productions is proud to host a very special Halloween Pulsewave! Bust out your costume one week early and come party with us at AlphaBeta as esteemed members of the New York chiptune crew perform as other bands! That’s right. All covers, all night long. For one night only, the raw power of the Nintendo Entertainment System and Nintendo Game Boy will be harnessed to summon the spirits of Ian Curtis, Glenn Danzig, David Gahan, and Rivers Cuomo! Ok, so only one of those guys is actually dead but if the others were, their ghosts would be there too. Throw in live, Halloween-themed visuals, a costume contest, some killer raffle prizes, and a VERY special MYSTERY PERFORMER and you’ve got a Saturday seance that can’t be missed!
