Handmade Music Afterparty

Equal parts science fair and music party, Handmade Music is a gathering where musicians and the musi-curious explore new sound worlds. Assembled from the growing, global grassroots DIY scene, makers and hackers present new inventions and technology. Instead of just consuming, these are the people making the code, instruments, and noise-making contraptions that make the music. At tonight’s Afterparty you can meet and mingle with inventors, musicians, and artists. Discover chip and mobile music played live wirelessly at the bar by New York’s Pulsewave community. Details below.

Highlights include:
* MODAL KOMBAT, two classically-trained guitarists who play games like Pong and Mario Kart using their guitars
* The NEUROHEDRON, a three-dimensional musical sculpture and music sequencer in the form of a large dodecahedron
* The SMOMID, a homemade, string-modeling, guitar-style instrumental invention
* Music made in the HALO GAME ENGINE
* CHIP + NINTENDO + ANDROID music live at the bar, featuring PULSEWAVE
* Drone Lab creator and renowned synth designer, artist, circuit bender, and musician Pete Edwards of CASPERELECTRONICS
