Richie Hawtin Debuts Contakt Events And The Cube @ Movement

May 10, 2008

Spotted over @ PSFK >

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Hawtin’s other hugely influential record label M_nus. To celebrate, he’s planning a select number of events called Contakt around the globe that build on the past and also look to introduce something from the future. It’s called ‘The Cube’.

What is apparent is that the Cube is a highly advanced communications device that responds positively to the presence of humans and interacts accordingly. By acting as a central hub it seems to allow us to direct our thoughts, collect and share ideas, transcend language and interconnect musically in ways previously not possible. We’re still in the early stages of research but it seems our destinies have somehow become interlinked.

M_nus have just launched a beautifully designed site for Contakt. The first event is scheduled for May 25th right  here in Detroit.

I’ll post all the details of exactly where. And hopefully we’ll get an inside scoop to see what the Cube is all about. Or if any of you experience it first hand,.. please feel free to post your findings/thoughts here in the comments section. Thanks!
