Media Archeology: Below Fi - Night 3 (April 19-21)

  • 2401 Munger Street Houston, TX, 77023 United States (map)

The final evening of Media Archeology features 1-bit music and video with live drumming from Tristan Perich and the legendary "swamp tech" duo Quintron and Miss Pussycat.  The Festival is Curated by Nick Hallett.
Tristan Perich’s 1-Bit Music project harnesses the most basic form of digital sound to complex, electrifying effect. Incorporating original minimal techno music which has been programmed and implemented into simple circuitry available in the form of a CD jewel case, Tristan accompanies his art- cum-music devices with live drumming and 1-Bit video. 

Direct from the 9th ward of New Orleans, organ player and inventor Mr. Quintron, along with his partner-in-crime, Miss Pussycat, deliver a frenzied musical experience featuring "swamp tech" beats played on the Drum Buddy, a mechanically-rotating, five-oscillator, light-activated drum machine. As Mr. Quintron fingers boogie woogie basses and gospel chords on his nightclub organ(built out to resemble a car) and spins the Drum Buddy as a DJ scratches a record, Miss Pussycat plays maracas and performs avant-garde puppet theater. Visuals for Quintron and Miss Pussycat created by Mighty Robot

Tickets are $10 per show ($8 for Aurora members) or $15 for a festival pass ($10 for Aurora members) and are available by contacting Aurora at 713.868.2101 or here.
