Blip Fest headed to NYC December 4-7

While it might be too regrettably late to make a last minute journey to Montreal for tonight's previously mentioned Gamma 3D, before you pull a low-bit four-color freakout (as above), I'll note that there's still plenty of time to plan for NYC's forthcoming BlipFest, the December 4-7th celebration of NES, C64, Atari ST, and Game Boy "chipmusic and its related disciplines."

The schedule is all still TBA, so I can't yet point toward any single can't-miss night, but the overall line-up is star-studded enough that any night's a sure bet for something a little bit amazing.

I will certainly be there at least one night. We'll shoot some video. Maybe I can get some sound board recordings.

Why can't every internet animation be like this?

These guys did an awesome Halloween cover night a couple weeks ago. Glomag's Joy Division set was mind blowing.

The Bell House is a great new venue. I was there over the weekend for a Carl Newman show and they had brought in food vendors from the Red Hook ballfields to sell pupusas on the sidewalk. That's how you take care of your customers.
