Martin at ISU + More!
WEEKEND UPDATES FROM PPIM
There is so much amazing stuff happening and more big announcements coming up!
Just announced Monday, an early Sunday event with Jason Pettigrew in May (Tickets Here). Jason was senior editor at Alternative Press Magazine for the 20 years that mattered! We spoke so many times about Pigface, Ministry, Killing Joke, invisible Records, the Damage Manual, and I’m sure many others.
Our Nine Inch Nails Days have been really well received and regularly sell out. It’s a really meaningful experience, and the collection has grown just since the last day we had! IF you are having a problem with funds (because you blew a ton on NiN tickets, or just life in general punching you in the face – please let me know and I’ll put you on my guest list for the event!). The next NiN Day will be the evening of Wednesday, March 19, and Saturday, March 22!

Martin at Illinois State UniversityISU University Galleries Monday & Tuesday, March 24th & 25th, I’ll be visiting Illinois State University’s School Of Creative Technologies in Normal, Il. In addition to jumping in to a few classes, I am speaking broadly on all of the ingredients that led up to the crystallization of Chicago as the US-center for industrial music. Of course, Wax Trax! Records, but so many ground-breaking, creative entrepreneurs fed into the ecosystem too; from H-Gun video to Chicago Trax recording, The Alley, Exit, Touch & Go, Steve Albini, FFS, and so much more! I’ll take a quick look at being in London in ’77 during punk and NYC in ’82/’83 as hip hop moved to downtown Manhattan from the Bronx – elements that primed my radar for the situational recognition — and the realization that I didn’t know exactly what was happening in Chicago (for me in 1989), but I knew I was going to parachute into the middle of it! My 5pm talk at ISU University Galleries on Tuesday March 25, produced in joint effort by the School of Creative Technologies and the Department of Psychology, is free and open to the public – just fyi. The foundations of the talk are the scenes I mentioned, but ideally, this will be a jumping off point for ideas about creativity, opportunity, community and the power of creative acts. I’m happy to chat and sign any project I’ve been involved with after the talk if you want to bring stuff!
