Take one dark, strange basement space deep beneath the Li-Po Lounge in China Town and mix with super-fine electro DJs spinning in the key of bone-break and sternum rattle evening long. When I say super-fine, I mean every DJ in the dungeon was unbelievably good. It was the best mix of musical re-imaginings I’ve ever heard. My neck hurts from the impossible to avoid head bouncing.
Now add VJ Mattbot and Wolf Interval to the room for the first public beta run of our embryonic audio/video framework. Extra props to Grey, a mad scientist on the decks who also kept us both in liquid video courage.
Lastly, thread in a small group of wonderful dancers, designers, visualists, musicians and other highly colorful representatives of San Francisco’s nightlife. At this point in the narrative you should have a good idea what the first evening of Tickle Me Electro was like. Spirits running high everywhere, a wonderful time was had by all.
Our video sequencing machinery in Max worked a charm, and we used the evening as a live-patching laboratory, concocting more methods of visual mayhem for next time. Max 5 + Jitter smoothly pumped out our abstract stylings all night long with nary a hiccup.
