I believe I've mentioned this year's festival once, but we got a press reminder and it's worth mentioning again: Blip Festival 2007 is taking over New York (or at least, the chiptune-happy bits!) again at the end of this month - specifically November 29 through December 2, 2007 (Thursday - Sunday), this time at the Eyebeam Atelier, with nightly musical performances and special daily exhibitions/showings.

We covered 2006's Blip Festival in voluminous detail, thanks to it being awesome, and here's the info on the new iteration: "The Blip Festival 2007 (www.blipfestival.org) is a four-day celebration of electronic music and art made with vintage videogame equipment, including Game Boys, Ataris, Commodore 64s and other tricked out Old School gear sure to appeal to everyone’s inner geek. Presented by The Tank and 8bitpeoples and sponsored in part by Make Magazine, Singha Beer, Element Labs and Periscope Entertainment with additional funding from The Greenwall Foundation, this year’s extravaganza follows up on the success of 2006’s inaugural outing with an even larger venue to showcase its expanded roster of over 40 artists and musicians from the US, Japan, Europe and South America – many appearing for the first time ever in the United States."

The schedule isn't up just yet, but here's the artist list - it's also noted: "With nightly concerts, daytime screenings and workshops, and a group gallery show “B I T M A P : as good as new” presented in association with the festival at vertexList Gallery, The Blip Festival 2007 brings together the biggest international names in the field of low-bit art and chiptune music for an opportunity to be seen and heard in the epicenter of the creative world." Matt 'Fort90' Hawkins has promised to cover the event for GSW again this year, so watch out for that.
