A little something from our gig at SIME07

I’ve been falling asleep in random places today after a pretty hectic week in Stockholm at the SIME Conference, where we–a bunch of techno boys, video renegades and bad-behaved web geeks–managed to pull off something pretty interesting. We produced a kick-ass song, music video (Hi-res version) and ringtone on stage, all in 48 hours. There were around 1000 attendees at the conference, and quite a few of them shot pictures of the performance, and I’ve been granted permission to show some of the best ones on this blog. So, here we go!

I got the 303 tag for my overcoat, which implied I had to change my desktop background. Photo by Eric.

In the end the stage was fully colorized. Photo by Nico.

Then we did a “field recording” for the music video. Movie by Eric.
