Baltimore's RedRoom

I finally had a chance to check out the very cool local hangout: RedRoom at Normal's Books and Music. I picked a good night too. Tim Kaiser of Make Magazine fame was there with his handmade electronic instruments.



Imagine a LIVE electronic music concert... one where there something to watch other than speakers. Tim's performance is part musical, part sculptural, and part conceptual. He will swirl tubes, twiddle knobs, wave his hands, and move his light wand to control the electronic noises.

Like any good Maker, Tim is proud and excited to explain each of his creations in detail after the performance. When I took a closer look at his toys, I was able to admire the incredible detail. I noticed that he even made a yellowed-with-age instruction manual for one of his stranger creations, encased in an oak box.

The trip was a lot of fun. Definitely a cool hangout for anyone in the Baltimore area!
