Here is some video taken from backstage care of Graintable.
I must say that in all the years of being involved with laptop battle I had never seen such an amazing amount of talent. I have crazy amounts of respect for everyone involved. and once I can get a chance to straighten out some business I intend on sharing more about each of them.
that said here is a tiny bit of Graintable’s set I found when I went looking for video.

Well… alright there you go. Tonight I am doing a show called Merry Glitchmas! with Graintable.
Vincent Parker Studio interview for Lift Studios
click on the image above or go to http://www.liftstudios.ca/lsb031
sooooo last week I did a video interview with my friend Frederick Brummer for LiftStudios.ca.
We talked about my musical, design and artistic practice. I had a great time and I feel that the video gives a better understanding to do with my process. I must say it was great to be able to elaborate on some of my thoughts around my music and design.
There is also footage of my grumpy little cat Binky… (named after Binky Griptight of daptone records)

Emily Carr National Portfolio Day Poster
Every year Emily Carr University of Art + Design selects an image from the last year’s graduating class.
Guess what? They picked my piece “Modified Bedroom Studio (Tower)” ! !!
So it’s a bit hard to see whats going on. They made the image a metalic pantone on purple so it doesnt come through very nice on screen… but it’s print so I’m stoked.
PMS colours are: 228 purple, 8400 silver and 3955 yellow
