Weee! Bach.
The two part invention below in g minor from Bach's Inventions and Sinfonia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inventions_and_Sinfonias) is really an easy piece. It was intended most likely to be played on the harpsichord. I opted to play it on the organ. Most of the inventions don't translate too well. Below is an an example of "good" piano playing. It is Greg Anderson playing "the devil's staircase" by Gyorgy Ligeti. I wonder how many years before I will be able to play this piece? |

Geek Meets Grid - the GeekAustin 8th Anniversary Party.
This is our big GeekAustin bash of the year, and because I honestly love you, there is no cover. The event is free.
To help amp up the celebration, we have invited our friends at Refresh Austin and the Austin Electronic Music Grid to co-host. Refresh Austin represents some of the sharpest web and design pros in town, and the Grid represents some of the most interesting electronic music artists in town. I am pretty excited about getting them together in the same room. The Geeks meet the Grid.
The event begins at 6PM with drinks and conversation downstairs. At 7PM, Dubnautica performs in the Boom Boom Room Refresh Lounge. Beginning at 8PM, there will be performances by Austin Electronic Music Grid artists including: Gobi,
Carbon Theory, Happy Panjoma, and Rage Ranger.
Union Park is a big club. We'll have some rooms set up for performance, and some rooms set up for conversation. Union Park also has an excellent menu, so there is no need to head home before the party.
GeekAustin 8th Anniversary Party
Tuesday, September 30, 6PM - 11PM
Union Park, 612 W Sixth St (Next to Katz’s)

PhizzPop! -- Austin's top interactive designers duke it out Friday.
| |
The PhizzPop Design Challenge is the Battle Royale of Design. Austin's top interactive, Web, and design agencies are pitted against one another to push the limits of technology and creativity. Austin has some of the best interactive designers in the biz. If you are a designer wanted to check out the competition -- or if you are looking for a new design gig -- this is the place to be. Don't believe me? Get the scoop from Shellie.
Regional competitions have already taken place in New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Austin's winners will compete with them at (where else but) South by Southwest Interactive.
Although it's a not too late to register online, I just got confirmation from Chris Bernard at MS that there will still be room to come check out the action.
Hope to see you there - LinearB
