Handmade Music Brooklyn 3/8 – Musical sewing machines, electro-country, + new venue!

Attention NYC noise-lovers – Handmade Music Brooklyn returns at our new venue, Galapagos Art Space!

Science fair, party, variety show – Handmade Music celebrates unusual DIY creations in music, with people who make their own tools to make their own music.

This month, Galapagos Art Space means a stage, a bar, and a huge lineup of FREE music:

• ELECTRO-COUNTRY + unusual instruments with the Owen Lake band, covering honky-tonk country classics on synths and electronics and showing off Jeff Snyder’s original Manta touch instrument
• AUGMENTED SEWING MACHINE + ENSEMBLE with monome and other creations, featuring Lara Grant (sewing machine) + Matt Ganucheau + Peter Kirn
• AUDIOVISUAL HYPER-TRUMPET the TOOB, an expressive digital instrument

…plus surprises, hands-on with lots of inventions, plenty of makers and technologists to meet and buy beers in exchange for tips, crafters, inventors, and more.

Hosted by createdigitalmusic.com, the craft marketplace and community Etsy, the DIY bible Make Magazine, and the trend-setters of XLR8R Magazine

In addition to the above listed goodness, I’ll be on hand demoing some new MIDI toys – if you’re in the area, be sure to stop in and say hi!
