All funds raised go to Climate Ground Zero, a non-violent direct action based organization working to stop Mountaintop Removal coal mining in West Virginia. Mountaintop removal uses high powered explosives to reach the coal inside mountains, demolishing extremely diverse ecosystems, poisoning drinking water and air, and destroying livelihoods.

███████▐▐▌▐ Judi Chicago ▀███████▌▐░
JUDI CHICAGO is the sound of the sticky skylines and chickenbone sidewalks of Atlanta. Since 2006 the trio of multi-instrumentalists James Joyce, Travis Thatcher and British-born ATL transplant Ben Coleman have concocted their surrealist blend of acid house, technicolor glamrock 8-bit bleeps, art-punk, free-association poetics & the beats and breaks of ragga, jungle and classic rave.

███████▐▐▌▐ Nonhorse ╙╚╝╜ﬞﬞ██████▌▐░
"G. Lucas Crane (VanishingVoice, Time Life, Woods) has utilized his Nonhorse project in crafting a new language for tape music and drone over the past many years, melding the two varied approaches with an accomplished zeal that has yet to fall into mannerisms of complacency. The cross-faded epics of found sounds and other unidentified musical paraphernalia acts as the fluid pulpit for Crane's ambiguous vocal tricks and electronic management. " Boss say that it Grunk fault.

I (as Loud Objects) played three shows with them in Austin. They full of tables of entirely handmade synthesizers, and they played incredible dance music with them. The synths themselves are beautiful creatures.

After building a xOxbOx (TB-303 bassline synth clone) in 2006, the Acid sound has been the name of his game. Using the xOxbOx, a sampler and a variety of circuit bent devices, Dr. Rek's solo Acid set is an irresistible jack fest . Woah best sentence ever.

the friendly ghost in the machine. also the friendly ghost of silent barn.
- How much can a mound of dirt be watered before it slurries into a mud slide?
- How many looped tape loop loops can be looped in a loop of looped loops before the universe effaces itself entirely?
- How much structure is needed to prevent collapse?
Cogitate these questions and more at this interactive panel discussion with the residents and co-curators of the Silent Barn.
Join the panelists as they unpack buzzwords like “DIY,” “community-based,” and “performance space” in a presentation of storytelling, crowd surfing, and mixed metaphors. All set to the live stylings of a walking cello line.
You supply the key ingredients: bring as many veggies, cassette tapes, and sacks of dirt and mud as you can manage!
