Chi-Town/Sea-Town Boogie Down

Chi-Town Boogie Down

I had a fabulous time mixin' it up in Chicago last night! The promotor, Olia, picked me up fresh off a very bumpy plane ride and whisked me off to play at a quaint bar/restaurant called Cafe Amante which is on the West side of Chicago. It's very refreshing to play to a town where everyone totally feels the music. In Seattle, House music is still a bit underground, trying to make it's way up. But House music was born here in Chicago, out of disco (you can all thank my mom's Bee Gee albums for this passion of mine!) and the people here love their baby! Olia was extremely welcoming. And the other DJ's that played that night were very fun and had mad skillz. I certainly hope to get another chance to play with them again. And Bionicchick & Christie Dawn both got to see me play for the first time! And that makes Jack a very happy girl!

"People Doing Strange Things With Electricity II" at CoCA: http://dorkbot.org/dorkbotsea/events-pdstwe2.shtml

Lasers, video installations, flashing lights, things that vibrate andemit peculiar sounds... all with a plug and a cord. My favoritesinclude the networked "nodes" of grass (which very accuratelyreproduced wind gusts blowing across a field), and theskylight/chandelier, adorned with live video-feedback loops.
