Get Educated at EMP Pop Conference

BK%20Dewey%20emp%20photo.jpg

Get your name on the official list for Experience Music Project's 2008 Pop Conference, taking place in our very own Hendrix-drenched, spring-obsessed city from April 10–13. That's next weekend! This year's theme is "Shake, Rattle: Music, Conflict, and Change," and EMP has gathered over 160 writers, speakers and musicians to expound on the many facets of the subject. (The conference is completely, gloriously free.)

The many panels we're excited about include Riotous (featuring presentations on French hiphop, riots, and M.I.A.), Popular Music and the Experience of Trauma (particularly the presentations on house music and Radiohead), and He Pop/She Pop ("manning up," patriarchal patriotism, and Kanye West). Iraq war protest music? How Prince killed semi-legal segregation in Twin Cities clubs? Jazz, rock, house, folk? Good god. Sign up.

To register, e-mail PopConferenceRegistration@empsfm.org or call 206.770.2745.

April 10-13 // Experience Music Project // Free // All Ages
