Episode 1-4: Dementia Music Unlimited Part 2

This is part 2 of 2 of the series on Comedy Music.  It this episode I interview Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad(www.powersalad.com).  Power Salad is a comedy music group offering obscurely skewed and head-scratchingly funny views of life, wrapped up in different musical styles like wieners in blankets.  Then we talk to Jared Ringold of Possible Oscar(www.possibleoscar.com).  Possible Oscar is a Minneapolis, MN based comedy music act that specializes in original and parody songs. Their topics range from video games to nerd love, with stops at comic books and notable Hollywood movie sound effects.  Many of the artist in part 1 and 2 can be found at The Funny Music Project(www.thefump.com).

Episode 1-3: Dementia Music Unlimited Part 1

This episode I bring you part 1 of a 2 part series on Comedy Music, also know as Dementia in some circles.  Comedy music covers many styles of music from Jazz to Hip Hop and everything in between.  The artists I have for part 1 are Dino-Mike (www.dino-mike.com), singer, a lyricist, but most importantly a musician.  Next is The Gothsicles(www.thegothsicles.com), Chicago’s ultrasweaty industrial dance dorkstorm.  Lastly is Devo Spice(www.devospice.com) a nerdcore and comedy rapper from New Jersey who has been called “the red-headed stepson of Weird Al Yankovic and Eminem.”  Many of the artist in part 1 and 2 can be found at The Funny Music Project(www.thefump.com).

Episode 1-2: BarCamp Rochester

In this Episode I went to BarCamp Rochester at the Rochester Institute Technology in Rochester, NY. This convention is called an unconvention. That means that people that come have a presentation prepared and will pick a time slot in one of the reserved room. Not only did they have presentation but also there was the local hacker space Interlock Rochester, The RIT student organization call Security Practices and Research Student Association(SPARSA) had a lock picking demonstration, and Innovation Trail from NPR was there interview people in their sound booth.

Episode 1-1: Tale of Two Conventions

In our first episode we look at 2 conventions and talk to the people and some of the guests.  The first convention is a Undercon in Rochester, NY.  This is a small gathering where a few friends got together to play a game.  The other convention is Penguicon is Troy, Mi.  Penguicon is a much larger convention that has much more going on.  We are going to talk to the people and some of the guest of both.  I hope you enjoy the show.
