Noche Blanca Madrid - Virtual Streetart

On saturday "La Noche Blanca" turned the complete city of Madrid into one big party with performances, visual art, concerts and DJ sets. There was also supposed to be a guy from "Cirque du Soleil" walking over a 100m long and at least 20m high cable, located between to main buildings on Gran Via - without any net of protection above the ground. However, this event was unfortunately cancelled because of too much wind.

Due to the huge amount of things to see, I didn't catch as much, but stayed a while at Caixa Forum to see the virtual graffitti presentation of Omnivor Lab from Barcelona, presenting virtual drawings and graffittis - Street Art 2.0 - from Btoy, Lolo and Tohyto.
Instead of using the traditional street art to paint walls directly, the artists explored new ways to express themselves, using virtual methods to animate their drawings and let them grow itself on the wall.

Lateron the Instituto Mexicano del Sonido played together with Wagon Cooking and Jay Haze, to present their album Piñata, which came out last year. A good mixture of Dub, Chachacha and Electronics. Good stuff altogether!
