IDEAS CITY 0

Kickstarter is thrilled to once again be a part of IDEAS CITY at the New Museum. This year, we've invited a number of projects (MaKey MaKey, Impossible Project, Balloon Mapping, Walk [Your City], Sportsfriends) to join us to create what we are calling Kickstarter and the Creative City. The festival kicks off at 11 am on Saturday May 4th on Bowery, right outside the New Museum.

Heres a quick breakdown of all you can expect to see at, what we are calling, Kickstarter in the Creative City.

MaKey MaKey

Co-creator Eric Rosenbaum and producer j.viewz bring you a MaKey MaKey powered musical installation where participants get to be both musician and instrument. Performances will take place every hour on the hour between 1-5pm.

The Impossible Instant Lab

The debut of the Impossible Projects Instant Lab! See the Lab in action and contribute your photos to our StreetFest gallery. Submit your photos on Twitter using #IDEASCITY.

Walk [Your City]

Explore a series of Lower East Side walking tours, created by the guerilla wayfinding project creator CityFabric, & LESs own Fourth Arts Block! All routes start at the Kickstarter booth, where you can learn more about this project and plan a route for your own neighborhood.

Balloon Mapping

Members of the Public Lab community are leading missions to map the StreetFest using a giant, collaboratively built 100-balloon rig. Theyll be doing live demos of MapKnitter, their free open-source software, using the images collected on missions.

Sportsfriends

Were excited to present a Sportsfriends bonanza featuring Hokra & BaraBariBall! Meet the creators of these ingenious games and try them out for yourself. Guaranteed fun for the whole family.

If youre free on Saturday May 4th, wed love to see you!
