(A documentary about using old gameboys and Nintendos to make beats. Awesome post Joe! –Mojo )

Sweet baby jesus, this looks awesome. If you happen to be headed to the 2008 SXSW Festival, be sure to check it out.

Blip Festival: Reformat the Planet is a feature length documentary which delves into the movement known as ChipTunes, a vibrant underground scene based around creating new, original music using old video game hardware. Familiar devices such as the Nintendo Game Boy and Nintendo Entertainment System are pushed in new directions with startling results.

Using New York as a microcosm for a larger global movement, the film maps out the genesis of the first annual Blip Festival, a four day celebration of over 30 international artists exploring the untapped potential of low-bit video game consoles.
