DESCRIPTION:

Chicago's dorkbot restarts April 2 at 7 PM at Enemy Sound!

What is a "dorkbot"?! The idea of the international dorkbot network is
of "people doing strange things with electricity" and meeting in
informal, friendly environments to discuss their projects. These
projects could include hardware hacks, New Media Art projects,
creative code, circuit bent musical instruments or wild DIY garage
science!

On Thursday April 2, current dorkbot Chicago organizers jonCates and
Jake Elliott will give a short presentation on the past, present and
future of dorkbot in Chicago. The artist-run organization Enemy Sound
will host and Todd Bailey will present a sneak peak at a new project.

Dorkbot veteran Todd Bailey will demonstrate his latest project,
"Where's the Party At v1.0", an 8-bit audio sampler in kit form. Todd
is a Chicago-based electronic engineer & musician, well known in these
parts for his work on the Camp Gay art space and in the band Voltage.
