Programmer-turned-Hipster
Uebergeek aka Amy Alexander of plagiarist.org , performs her live,
Psychedelic Psearch Engines, B0timati0n and Netaesthesia.
The
performance will be held in conjunction with the Pilot Operating
Net project of the medi@terra international festival.
In
today's "Geek Age" - a time when formerly nerdy computer culture
has crashed head-on into pop culture - Uebergeek puts down her pocket
protector, picks up a can of Jolt Cola, and makes the Internet "cool."
Live
audience members and passersby on Chung King Road will use telephone
message pads to submit search term requests to DJ Uebergeek (as
well as any missed phone messages from the office...)
Members
of the Internet audience and those attending medi@terra may submit
requests via web page at http://plagiarist.org/eo
or by telephoning in their requests to the Electronic Orphanage
at +1-213-617-4903 during the show.
There
will be "limited-seating" Internet streaming during the show. (As
long as it works and until we overload the free version of RealServer
we downloaded.)
Uebergeek
will submit the search term requests to the B0timati0n and Netaesthesia
Performance Search Engines, where the search results will be converted
to Amazing Animated Text, Groovy Graphics, and Scintillating Synthesized
Sound.
Including
mind-bending Uebergeek solos on the Power Glove and Air Mouse; it's
a Net Art Rave! (without the mosh pit.)
