Experimental sound guy/filmmaker Tengal, one of the artists we featured in the current STATUS issue is up to something major next week–the ASEUM and Ear2Eye Festival.

It kicks off with cutting-edge music and images at Gweilo’s Makati this Wed, 6PM featuring Iron Egg, Tad Ermitaño, Rubber Inc., Caliph8, Innovative Noise Collective, Arvie Bartolome, Icconnu ictu, Tengal, Elemento, Etniktronica, Nyangbinghi, Mannet Villariba, Trojan Whores, Eggboy.

This is when hardcore new media artists converge for serious bizznezz: interactive design, networked culture, open source software movements, interactivity, data visualization, bio-technology, DIY electronics, open-source hardware, computer/electronic music, and sound and video art. We’ll see you there.
