Hi Everyone! Join us for some Geeks, the Devil and Chaos as we 
host an eastern PiNG at The Renaissance Café which is another 
fine pro art space suited to the PiNG. There's room to socialize with 
comfy chairs, a couch or two and a small patio out front. Plus there's 
more couches up near the performance space for those who want to 
focus in on the good friends we've invited to perform. In between 
are tables and chairs along the bar which has great beer on tap 
plus gourmet coffee and munchies available. 

For those who haven't been yet, The Renaissance Café is located 
on the north side of the Danforth just a bit west of the Woodbine 
Subway station on the Bloor/Danforth line.

So head east young PiNGers as we're really looking forward 
to seeing y'all again!

~ Cheers, Scott M2 and Jamie

. For July 16th, Phil Ogison (The Devil In The Design) is presenting 
four works entitled, 'Behind the seen'. The concept for this project 
is an exploration of situationist views of landscape and structures
in a historical framework.

These pre-recorded/live element works are comprised of found
sound collected around the Toronto Harborfront and archival
spoken word samples, digitally manipulated and arranged with
the addition of live electric guitar and keyboard synthesizer.
For this occasion, ten limited edition studio copies of
'Behind the seen' will be available for the price of $5.00 each.
The event will be recorded live in both audio and digital video
format, to be made available at a later date online. This project
is part of an forthcoming co-release with Hotel Nuclear / AZT
(Ronconfreddo I, Berlin D, and Noyon Fr), a project of
Martha Zapparoli (penelope x) and Giancarlo Bianchini (AZT)
part of the "Arto-Zat" group, a cultural association concerned
with promotions of artistic research and is composed of
artists, musicians, video makers.

. Geek Weekend is back for another summer sizzler.
Robert Hoare (Berlin) and Steven Sauvé (Hamilton) look
forward to bringing you all manner of sultry sounds, drenched
in absurdity, and dripping with irony. No computers have been
harmed in the making of this music. ADVISORY: Random
processes are used throughout the performance.
