On Sunday, September 20th, as part of the Conflux City Festival, we’ll spread out over Manhattan’s East Village in search of the best thumping noises around Conflux Headquarters.
Duration: approx. 2.5 hours: 1:45pm – 4:15pm Sunday Sept. 20
* 1:45pm START under the scaffolding outside Conflux HQ (34 Stuyvesant St). Please bring a digital camera or phone that can record video with sound. Look for signs or t-shirts with the thumping fist stencil!
* 2:00pm Spread out around the neighborhood or further, in search of good thumping locations. Record the best ones you find.
* 3:45pm Gather at De Robertis Cafe (176 1st Av @ 11th St) to share videos, pastries, and coffee.
I’ve added a Creative Commons Attribution License to all my thumping videos, which means you’re welcome to reuse them in any way you like as long as you give credit. If you contribute to the Thumping Guide, I encourage you to do the same, or at least use any of the other CC Licenses that allows remixing. If you post your video on flickr, add the license using their licensing menu; if you submit in a different way, let me know what license you’d like to use.
You can see all the videos with a remix license (right now, it’s all of them) by clicking the CC tag. I hope someone will make music, or a drum kit or sample set out of them!
