Moogfest Press Preview in NYC

By Patrick Kowalczyk, 4 March 2016 — Art, MUSIC

To give New York City-based media a sneak preview of what’s in store for this year’s Moogfest in Durham, North Carolina, PKPR helped organize a press preview event at Ace Hotel New York on February 27th. Journalists from outlets like NPR’s Studio 360, Gizmodo, Quartz, The Verge, Dezeen, Inverse, Vice, and Hyperallergic had a chance to observe a synth building class, meet artists participating in the festival, and experience live performances.

The Verge and Inverse have already posted preview stories on the festival, which takes place May 19-22.

The world’s most forward-thinking artists, musicians, and technologists—from Grimes, GZA, Miike Snow, Laurie Anderson, and Blood Orange to virtual reality pioneer Jaron Lanier, transhumanist visionary Dr. Martine Rothblatt, and cyborg artist Neil Harbisson – will be gathering in Durham, North Carolina for Moogfest 2016 this May 19 -22. Celebrating the legacy of Dr. Robert Moog and the influence his inventions have had on how we hear the world, Moogfest is unlike any other festival thanks to an intimate format where many artists not only perform in the evening, but also join panel discussions and lead workshops during the day. The New York Times said: “Moogfest, in its mom-and-pop technosophy and its insistence on immersive experiences in small, comfortable spaces, might have gotten something exactly right.”
