Philly Goes 8-bit & Beyond

The Autumn Society, the same artist collective that put on the 80s POP Show last month, is planning 8-bit & Beyond, a new event centered around fan-created video game art work.

Scheduled to open August 7th at Philadelphia's Brave New Worlds comic shop, the show will feature live music provided by chiptune notable Doctor Octoroc (8-bit Jesus, 8-bit Keyboard Cat).

You can preview several pieces slated to appear at 8-bit & Beyond below:

"No Gods Or Kings, Just Man" by Mike Wohlberg (11" x 17" screen print, limited number available at the show):
