Maker Faire - this looks to be several hundred pounds of fun, like science fair
+ show and tell for geeky adults.

"The creators of MAKE magazine, the MythBusters, and thousands of tech DIY
enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, science clubs,
students, and authors at MAKE's first ever Maker Faire!"

Also I'll be peforming at the upcoming, CD-release party for the group Drop
Black Sky. I'm sure many of you weren't aware that I did music.
I've been a part of the transhuman music community for a few years, and finally
have gotten out of the virtual world. I do something called live looping, which
means with no prerecorded or sampled elements I create loops and stack them
ontop of each other to create harmonies and rhythms across a wide variety of
musical styles. It's a fun show!
Some comments from the last show:
"I loved your opening and closing songs, particularly 'cello.' It's kind of
stuck in my frontal lobe at the minute ... and I don't mind at all."
"Your show was fabulous and if you have it on a CD I'd buy it."
"It was a fun show! I didn't know what to expect, and I now know I couldn't
have expected what I saw and heard. :)"
"It was like one man accapella.and felt kind of 'Druidic'"
I have a few songs on tech/geek lifestyle (all of them approachable I promise)
My studio has gone from mainframe to roughly one TabletPC in about a month
(how's that Mr Moore!).

And this is the last weekend to purchase discounted tickets and it's quite an
eclectic show: pancake jugglers, stunt performers, performance painters and of
course the soothing sounds of Drop Black Sky (kinda like DCD with volume on
11).
