Speaking in Code DVD available now at Fractalspin

Speaking in Code is an intimate account of people who are completely lost in music. A heartbreaking and lighthearted documentary, it’s a vérité glimpse into the world of techno.Captivating and entertaining, the film takes you around the world, following the people who make electronic music … their lives. I’ve watched it and could really relate in a lot of ways, from the experience of being a festival-go-er, DJ, musician, and promoter who’s passionate about electronic…

Open Channel: Chicago Electronic "Open Mic"

Check out this electronic version of “Open Mic” in Chicago that I’m putting together: Sort of like its analog cousin, Open Channel is an non-curated musician’s showcase in a supportive, relaxed environment, except it showcases electronic music, either through DJing or Live PAs. You will get 20 minutes to show off what you do musically, and then listen to other people doing the same thing. There are 12 slots open. The first 12 people who…

"Where's Rob?" Brilliant IRL prank that shows kind souls at work

I have been a fan of Improv Everywhere for a minute, especially a musical number in a train stationand the (faked) No Underwear Subway Ride. “Where’s Rob” is definitely my favorite so far, where an “agent” pretends to have lost his seat at a Nicks game. As his friends try to flag him down, the entire section tries to help out. Want a Rob! T-shirt? Neighborhoodies has them. Want.
