Digital Feasting & Laptop Battling
12th March 2010 @ 5.30pm-10pm
Westwood
Digital Scarborough presents an evening of food, music and visuals.
Before the action gets going there will be a buffet available provided by the renowned YCC catering students. Following that there will be a night of music, dance and art as local bands take to the stage in between laptop battles. Bands are still to be confirmed but they will be announced here first!
WHAT IS THE LAPTOP BATTLE?
The laptop battle is a competitive event for laptop musicians to match their skills against one another. Battles are chosen randomly and conducted in 3 minute rounds. A panel of judges decides which contestant advances to the next round, single elimination style.
It’s a fusion of sound design, composition and stage performance, and a chance for laptop (computer) musicians to prove their skills in battle and develop techniques and strategies.
Enjoy an evening of musical talent, a buffet and a licensed bar. We challenge up to 30 students in a duel to win the prize of Laptop Battling Champion 2010.
Each student has 3 minutes to showcase their digital audio masterpiece in a bid to be digital king.
