YrWall -Interactive Digital Graffiti – Lokey from Lumacoustics on Vimeo.

YrWall is like a giant computer screen that you can paint on with spray cans that use virtual paint. Pick your color and cap size, then spray and the wall does what you tell it to. No cops, no fumes, no drip – no bombing either. It looks like you can mess with the transparency, which is cool; but what would make this really fresh would be if you could spray different textures. Seems like a good way to add the physical element that’s missing from digital art, which is only important to the artist, not the viewer.

We’ll let homeboy do the explaining on this one. (On a side note; after I heard this and did some digging through his stuff, I wasn’t surprised to find out that Watson is also a dubstep producer. Check him on MySpace.)

“Basically the title says it all: the tar (North African frame drum) solo announces the ‘Tabla’ or doumbek/darbuka solo, and then re appears for the outro. The percussion tracks are all improvisations. The riq (Arabic tambourine) which accompanies the other instruments plays the rhythmic foundation throughout the entire song. The rhythm, which is the same from start to finish, is called ‘Khaliji’ [a style native to Arabic culture]. I recorded all the percussion parts myself using a laptop running Ableton Live.”

Also, as much as we love SoundCloud, we realize it doesn’t show up on all RSS readers. So we got the stream (and freeload) right here:

When: Fri., May 8, 10:00PM

Cost: FREE, sucka!

It’s dubstep – in case you couldn’t tell from the flyer… This new monthly hoe down features rotating residents Nebulla and Dore from COA (Dore’s apparently in Berlin at the moment), Enkryption Projekt, Dave Gee and Hellfire Machina. Don’t be fooled by the giant pub you got to walk through to get to the backroom. Once you get there, you won’t want to leave.
