The Best Wurst will be there as well, but only until 7, so get your wurst early if you’re hankering for one.

Pure Rain will be selling bottled rain water. (The owner is an engineer, so make sure you say hi and ask her about her love for Tesla. It’s genuine.)

Hotel Vegas will be supplying a plethora of drinks.

Please, no outside food and beverages. This event is almost FREE for you (ArcAttack has a charge). By buying from our vendors and artists, money will be kicked back to us to cover our event expenses. And you’ll want us to want to do this again next year because it is that cool!

A couple of reminders: chairs or blankets are encouraged for band watching prior to ArcAttack. Plus, consider packing sunscreen and a can of mosquito spray. We’ll have food and beverages for sale, so please no outside food and drink. Water is encouraged if you’d like to bring your own water bottle, though we will have a vendor–Pure Rain–selling delicious filtered rain water.

Ikipr has been writing music which parallels his exploration of alternative science, technology and magick for over 10 years. By using musical note correspondences found in the journal of Charles Henry Allan Bennett by Paul Foster Case, Ikipr attempts to map symbolic & archetypal forces through sound & art. His music is written in parameters ascribed to astrological signs, planets, tarot, Hebrew, Qabbalah and Alchemy. In this manner songs are similar to a ritualistic setting in which every aspect of sound goes toward building an aural-environment akin to a magickal space or ritual. This form and structure is given life within the listeners’ subjective experience by employing these correspondences alongside planetary tuning, brainwave entrancement, EEG sound triggering, cutups, planetary orbit frequencies as tempos, radionic tones, image to sound methods, various forms of audio cryptography, and random algorithms as a means to synchronicity. He volunteers as the media department to Borderland Sciences Research Foundation at borderlands.com.

His primary webpage is http://81diamondplex.com/999 and he has run the netlabel http://aleph9.com since 2005.

This is a video from AMODA’s 2010 SxSW show:

The Electric Revival, led by the charismatic Reverend Saturday, is where they proclaim testament to the glory of Tesla and the legacies of other mad geniuses like him that will lead us to our scientifically-awesome future. Praise Tesla and his majestic coils!

Mr. Saturday & Sixpence are this universe’s prime space-time bending gentlemen-for-hire, at your service! No other high caliber masters of their art can claim to include the finest mentalist in 16 dimensions and a charismatic mime wanted in 13 of those 16 dimensions!

Saturday & Sixpence are entertainers extraordinaire with a high improv flair when not on one of their fantastic (and assuredly foolish) adventures, enjoying the adoration of the crowds, gaining energy from their applause, laughter, and if need be, outright confusion.

When in this space-time quadrant, they attend conventions for jolts and jollies, head up the San Antonio Neo-Victorian Association, and for some strange reason, can usually be found in the Texas vicinity. They also happen to be the con-men behind AetherFest, Texas’ first Steampunk convention in San Antonio, TX and they do put on one hell of a convention!

Mr. Saturday & Sixpence are excited to entertain all the attendees of The Tesla Project this year with their wacky antics and our signature Electric Revival!

Mr. Saturday & Sixpence are scheduled to perform at 5:30.
