Last year, the Blip Festival brought together a plethora of chiptune musical artists, visual artists, and filmmakers to relish in the aeshtetics of an 8-bit lifestyle. This Thursday, Blip Festival 2007 kicks off with an even more ambitious roster of international chiptune musicians, artists, and more.
The event will be held at Eyebeam in New York City from Thursday to Sunday. Concerts each day will include a variety of musical artists, including heavy hitters like Bit Shifter, Nullsleep and Anamanaguchi. Saturday and Sunday of the event will also feature workshops and film screenings. Admission is $10 for each day's events, although multi-day passes are also available on the website.
Fans of anything and everything 8-bit are encouraged to attend. Chiptune artists have to be seen to be believed.

Coming from a fellow 8-Bit artist who's met Bit Shifter (who had a big hand in starting the Blip Festival) - GO. These guys are amazing.

Indeed. I've had the pleasure of seeing both Bit Shifter and Anamanaguchi live. I'm kicking myself that I can't attend this year's event, which is why I'm encouraging everyone else to go and make me feel worse by telling me how awesome it was.
