Hey everyone! Been ages since I've posted on here, but I wanted to  
let you all know about a fantastic electronic music and digital new  
media art festival happening here in Brooklyn this weekend. I'm  
involved, just so you know, but thought it would be of interest to  
all of you as well. Its this saturday, July 22nd, at 4pm...

Detailed info follows( I left out detailed info about the New Media  
art as to not clog the list, check out the website for detailed bios  
and pictures of ALL our participants):

On July 22, Bushwick Art Project (BAP) presents BAPLab, a festival  
celebrating New Media Art and Music 14 hours of new media  
installations, video works and electronic music from across the audio  
and visual spectrum. Culling artists from the rosters of the MoMA,  
The Whitney Museum, and the Venice Biennial along with musicians from  
labels such as M_NUS, Line, Kranky, Ghostly International and Clink  
Recordings, BAPLab is featuring over 80 musicians, performers, visual  
artists, new media installations and DJs side by side.  BAPLab is a  
call to arms to the disparate tribes of New York’s digital-futurists,  
drawing together from among the best and the brightest of a new  
generation of artists and musicians.

BAPLab hosts musicians that are exemplary in their fields including  
the ultra minimalist, MOMA approved Richard Chartier (LINE / Raster- 
Noton), Harvard Sound Lab’s Keith Fullerton Whitman (Kranky), laser  
koto virtuoso Miya Masaoka, URB’s “Next 100” Veteran Lusine (Ghostly  
International) and folktronica maestro Khonnor (Type Records).

round out the night, including Richie Hawtin label mate Ryan Crosson
