Event Info

Particle Kid: Acoustiquest 2026!Micah, Aroyn & Milo. Raw unplugged songs. Featuring live water cymatics/visuals by SisterLu. Humans only.Notes on Seating: Open seating, may be limited or standing room only. First come, first seated. Open dance floor may obscure sightlines.Composer/multi-media artist Micah Nelson has a remarkable output that spans thecreative spectrum unlike few others. The Los-Angeles based visionary, who producesart under the moniker Particle Kid, finds no boundaries in his creativity.His path started with creating animations and videos at 11 years old. Teaching himselfiMovie, Particle Kid picked up a hi-8 camcorder and made home-movies starring hisfamily, friends, dog, action figures, and whatever else was around. He was also inspired by animators including Ray Harryhausen, Tim Burton, Jan Svankmajer, and Bruce Bickford, and began making flip-books out of stacks of post-it notes he found at home and school.The limitations were great for creativity and accidentally making something unique and cool. I also realized the power of music in combination with images and how profoundly different music could transform an otherwise cheap looking homemade film into something with a real captivating emotional weight to it. I fell in love with the alchemy of sound and vision.
