Blip Fest 2008 at The Bell House
If you get the time this weekend, head on down to The Bell House for the 2008 Blip Festival, where artists use old Nintendos, Ataris, and Game Boys to create really rad music and visuals. Performances are at night, and workshops take place during the day. Here’s a video thing for the fest, via McBrooklyn. More at NBCNewyork.
