Part 2:

Intersection. Mixing and blurring the lines between pixels, creating our own media festival. Feauturing: masked soul convergence by Mellifluous and analogous artifice with Bio-Engine. Telivision piles and paint by Props. Plus, video projections shining truth and propaganda, visual arts from Amerikan Multiwerks, trash worship with Waste Zero and an autonomous dome built by the Ameoba Collective. Plus smart and dumb drinks and spontaneous surprises.

Musical landscapes will include: Soul filling drum and bass from Swingsett and Lisa Shaw, beat inspirations by Saskai, jump up jungle from Arrow Chrome, deep dark house from DJ Fflood, dancehall from Jason Blackkat and a mixed beat live set from Gabino.

Midnight to 6am at Pearl and John St, Dumbo Brooklyn. With an early morning sunrise ceremony watching the rays of light reflect off the skyline of Manhattan.

Part 1:

Dissection. Pulling apart the three colors that create pixels in television screens and computer monitors. A mixed media landscape built in the bowels of a former spice factory. Tall ceilings, cracked brick, exposed beams and our spectacle shining like a point of light from the soul of Dumbo Brooklyn. A red room with red walls, red wine and video projections shining over eclectic performances. A green room, with green installations and video screenings, full stories from the front lines of cultural revolution. A blue lounge with blue art and blue drinks from a blue bar.

Experience: Soul shaking by the irreverent Reverend Billy and his 10 piece choir. A cross genre live media masterpiece of funk and movement with Akim Funk Buddha and Dha Fuzion (ethno funkestra circus.) Live jazz/funk beats from Simple Life with a special performance piece by Wen Deb Januszed. Walls will be draped with video art and projections from Rroom.org, Eve Bradford and Geo99 Garrison. Interactive art installations from Mary Walling Blackburn and Palmipsest. All culminating in a climax orchestrated by the Ransom Corp. featuring the musical machinations of Zemi 17.

6pm until Midnight at Smack Mellon Studios 56 Waters Street in Dumbo Brooklyn. With a free-form parade led by the Hungry March Band traveling at midnight to the second part of the event - Intersection.
