Artist and composer Tristan Perich‘s new project is called One Bit Music. This low-fi musical device consists of electronics programmed and packaged in a standard CD jewel case that play minimal glitch/dance music when headphones are plugged in.

The device is meant to fit into the standard album-based method of music distribution: you will find it along other CDs in a record store and it has different tracks; it will be released by Cantaloupe Music in the upcoming months.

Perich will exhibit the device, play a sampling of his music, and explain how it works and came to be during the dorkbot NYC meeting, September 7th at Postmasters Gallery (459 West 19th Street in Chelsea).
