> thick
> textures of energized electronic music. She has been crossing over the
> art, music and club scenes with its depth defying eletronica
> unashamedly
> driven by its rhythmic core - layers and layers of cross woven breaks
> and
> shattered percussion, battling waves of sub bass.
> – The Godmothers, part II, live
> 'Moto Nero' is a sound-performances which the Godmothers part II have
> developed for four turntables and effect gear to a short-film by Maria
> Ploskow. With various technical skills they created sounds and noises
> to

> generated
> drwaings). Sentite!

> new experimental electronic, adding some of her own latest tracks.

> – Ubergeek (Amy Alexander), VJ
> She is the Live Internet VJ for the Geek Age and presents for the first
> time 'CyberSpaceLand', Post-dotcom entertainment. She turns search
> engine
> queries into fun-and-funky club visuals while revealing the poignant
> poetry of net culture. An all-text video mix, CyberSpaceLand is
> generated
> in real-time by slightly chaotic algorithms and a human VJ with
> slightly
> odd-looking wireless computer gear taped on.
>
> In addition to the party which is also understood as a networking
> activity, there will take place 'fem snd - unplugged' an informal
> meeting
> on Sunday at 1 pm (location to be announced), where the artists,
> organizers and an interested audience meet to discuss political and
> economic implications of electronic music, like for example

> females
> in the sphere of electronic music and club culture.
