The exhibition will be up until November 21st, and the opening performance will be streamed live online – more details on where to see it will be posted here soon. On the opening night there will also be a party at the Café des Beaux Arts with Bjørn Torske DJ’ing.

Book description: ‘Earthbound – Surfing the Apocalypse’ is a ‘transmedia novel’ that uses text, artwork, music and various internet-based channels to tell the whole story. It is a tale of paranoid big city life during the apparent ‘end-times’, the internet, electronic music, magic, post-apocalyptic visions, the future, travels deep into the Arctic, free energy and the environmental crisis – and a whole lot more.

You can also get it for your Kindle at the Amazon Kindle Store.

Have you ever wondered what really will go down in 2012? Or why sleeping volcanoes seem to be waking up all around you? Or why the icecaps are melting? Or whether they are melting? Or whatever happened to Nikola Tesla’s most valuable invention? Or who really stood behind the success of The Beatles or the spreading of Christianity throughout the western world? Or how history will be viewed in hindsight, centuries from now? And what you’ve missed while sleeping in your own history-lessions? Or if the Apocalypse is actually coming, and wether these claims to have the answers to all of these questions can be trusted in any way?

Then you should check out Tied Revolverman’s ‘transmedia novel’ ‘Earthbound – Surfing the Apocalypse’, available now for the Kindle from Amazon.

If you don’t own a Kindle yet, you can download software versions of it for your Blackberry, Mac or iPhone at Amazon’s Kindle store for free.

You can now place your orders for a copy of the very limited run of new PM 12inch “Earthbeat/Lazer Ray”.

Mental Overdrive has announced the release of the ’Anti-LBM’ on December 7th 2009.

The background for this release is that he has accumulated a new body of work in the shape of a bundle of dancefloor tracks of an electronic flavour, but that this time he feels that the abundance of digital and other recorded music available within the electronic dance genres calls for him not to further add to this musical confusion.

Instead, the tracks contained on ’Anti-LBM’ will only be played at live performances in darkened clubs around the globe, which started with a Norwegian mini-tour to support Detroit legend Derrick May on Friday Nov. 27th and Saturday Nov. 28 in the cities of Oslo and Bergen respectively.

According to fellow Norwegian name DJ Prins Thomas, the material on ’Anti-LBM’ is ’steaming hot stuff’, and at an initial preview of some of these tracks during a live gig at London’s Fabric in May 2009, was said to have ’torn the roof off’ by the Fabric promoters.

’Anti-LBM’ will be available on no label, and is part of the ”Exclusive Music” series that started with the single track eBay auction of ”Elephantastic!” in 2007 (EXCL001), and then got followed up with another eBay auction of the ’Hidden Backwards Message’ (EXCL002) – in conjunction with the 2008 Mental Overdrive album ”You are being Manipulated”.

”Anti-LBM” (EXCL003) will not be available from December 7th 2009.

There’ a sum-up of the live streaming ‘experiment’ utilizing BitTorrent technology to stream Saturday’s concert during the Insomnia Festival over at Far North Living Lab. We also want to announce that the DVD version of the project, with the full-quality newly restored version of the movie, plus the full soundtrack in both stereo and 5.1 surround sound mixes is now available via us. The price is 15 EURO + postage, and you can pay via PayPal or credit card. Place your order by dropping us an email.
