[Noisebridge-discuss] This Friday: Noise Toy workshop, and Loud Objects show with Jib Kidder

[Gian Pablo Villamil]

That's right - he's at GAFFTA the night before, playing a duet for
harpsichord and multi-channel 1 bit electronics. Lesley Flanigan's
speaker synth performance on the same night is amazing too.

He's got a new 1-bit piece out, the "1 bit symphony"
(http://www.1bitsymphony.com/), he'll be bringing it on Friday. I have
listened to it and it is really great.

Incidentally, the Noise Toy workshop uses the same basic tools and
programming techniques as the '1-bit music' and '1-bit symphony'.
