CC'ed collage of computer game sounds by Bob Ostertag

Mark Frauenfelder 12:11 pm Tue Oct 16, 2007

Bob Ostertag, sound artist and professor of technocultural studies at UC Davis, just released a new sound recording (formerly known as "album") "w00t!" on his website. The katamari-instired "cover" art, co-option of the sounds of many popular games, and intelligent writing about digital art in the internet age (read this) is right up BB'ers alley.

Unlike Radiohead and NIN with their massive followings, catchy songs, and built-in marketing, Bob has a long standing and well-known reputation of ingenious sound artistry and political writing. That is to say, he's not selling a lot of records, but he is paving the way for artists of the future. Remixes, of course, are encouraged!
