Bent Festival: Your Guide to Circuit Breaking

For your circuit breaking needs

LA says wassup to the Bent Festival, arriving today in Downtown before its stint in New York and Minneapolis. It's all about circuit bending and the festival presents workshops, lectures, music, and should appeal to anyone interested in making electronic music, especially in the DIY manner.

Their site says, "The Bent Festival is an annual art and music festival celebrating DIY electronics, hardware hacking, and circuit bending. Each year we invite artists from across the country and around the globe to perform music with their home-made or circuit bent instruments, teach workshops to adults and children alike, create beautiful art installations and to generally come together, face to face, and showcase the state of the art in DIY electronics and circuit bending culture."
