BROKENBEAT NIGHT @ KADAN

TYCHO (Ghostly/ Merck)
...................................................................................................
Tycho is the audio and visual project of San Francisco based artist, designer and producer Scott Hansen aka ISO50. As Tycho he's a master of swirling, sun-drenched melodies and as the much-lauded graphic designer, ISO50, he's equally stunning and mines a similar aesthetic that sends him around the globe to speak at top design conferences including SXSW and OFFF Barcelona among others. Tycho has just released new material for Ghostly International (Mathew Dear / Solvent) after having recently released "Past is Prologue" on Merck Records. Hansen will be performing and displaying visual projections and artwork from his ISO50 guise, as well as his live set as Tycho."

TOM BURBANK (Planet-Mu/ BrokenBeat / Borders Collapse)
...................................................................................................
Following a solid first release "Famous First Words" on Planet-mu, our boy Tom Burbank has made some noise in the music world. Tom was recently chosen as one of RE:UP mag's "Choice Cutters," and will sure to be ready to drop it !!! Expect some original unreleased dubstep thrown in the mix...

EL POETA (BrokenBeat / Borders Collapse / Imputor?)
...................................................................................................
Artist, Producer, Technologist & Male Model Extraordinaire Angelo Gastelum aka Carlito Headset demonstrates the current 'speeka-burn' epidemic widespread among sound systems connected to his outputs. Hear what Its a slam dance exhibition --- make a mental note of the fire exits upon entry & refrain from using flammable hair tonics.

DATASCRAPER (n5MD / Component / Piehead / Xynthetic)
...................................................................................................
Datascraper, the side project from IDM musician "Portland".
Drawing on the dark and crunchy sounds from the Portland project and adding a more dance floor friendly edge, Datascraper's ground pounding beats and syncopated synths are well suited for the Industrial/Electro scene.

Already getting noticed by the emerging online label scene, Datascrapers' track "In Their Tongue" will be featured on Xynthetic Musics upcoming summer comp titled "Progress Report" (tentative title).

Mapping Festival | Geneva

[ English ]
While browsing around the Mapping Festival's site, I saw this documentary of the event that was aired on Swiss TV. While I can only imagine what most of these talented individuals are saying, I can still enjoy the beautiful art that is being showcased, very cool! You may also take a look at these great photos by Stephane Pecorini. I'm dying to have something like this here in San Diego!!!

Mientras chusmeaba el website de Mapping Festival, encontre este documental sobre el evento que fue transmitido en la television Suiza. Si bien solo puedo imaginar lo que estas personas estan diciendo, aun puedo disfrutar de una imagenes de lo que parece ser un increible evento. Tambien encontre estas fotos tomadas por Stephane Pecorini, en el mismo evento.

Largest Touchscreen | HP

[ English ]
Interactive multi-touch 16'x8' video wall with videos, photos, music, games and real time RSS feeds. It was installed for the D5 conference, here in Carlsbad, San Diego. The installation was commissioned by HP. I can picture Vjs performing live on stage, on a screen like this, or creating interactive visuals for people to interact with.

[ Castellano ]
Una pantalla de 4.8m x 2.5m multi-touch, con videos, fotos, musica, juegos y RSS feeds en tiempo real. Fue instalada para el D5 conference aqui en Carlsbad, San Diego. La instalacion fue responsabilidad de HP. Me imagino Vjs manipulando en vivo en un escenario o creando visuales interactivas para que la misma gente pueda interactuar con ellas.
