BLIP FESTIVAL: Reformat the Planet 4 Movie Clips
3/22/2008
Posted by ColliderStaff
A movie that recently played at SXSW was Blip Festival: Reformat the Planet. The film is a documentary which delves into the movement known as ChipTunes, a vibrant underground scene based around creating new, original music using old video game hardware. Familiar devices such as the Nintendo Game Boy and Nintendo Entertainment System are pushed in new directions with startling results. Using New York as a microcosm for a larger global movement, 'Reformat the Planet' maps out the genesis of the first annual Blip Festival, a four day celebration of over 30 international artists exploring the untapped potential of low-bit video game consoles. With floor-stomping rhythms and fist-waving melodies, trailblazers of the ChipTune idiom descend upon Manhattan to pen a new chapter in the history of electronic music.
Recently Aaron reviewed the movie and now weve been provided with 4 clips. While no info is currently available about when the film is coming out or hitting DVD, at least you can watch some of this cool movie now.
