29 Feb 2008: Geek Pop ‘08: A Celebration of Sci-pop Music

GEEK POP IN THE MEDIA:

“GeekPop08 - an online concert showcasing some of the best sci-pop songs around.”

“Pick of the bunch: Jonny Berliner’s bleak analysis of cosmology, ‘Dark Matter,’ is great. Just download the whole thing though, it’s all well worth a listen.”

“Celebrate geek chic by taking part in the world’s only sci-pop festival… Last year’s event was so popular that it’s back again, so log on to unleash your inner geek.”

The Naked Scientists spoke to festival organiser Vicky West in their 1st March 2009 show.

“This year’s draws include the doctor-staffed Tetrahedron, an engineering professor, an astronomy-inspired electro outfit and renowned science writer Stuart Clark playing rock guitar.”

“Freaking awesome.”

“Geek Pop is a music festival for that often-neglected subgroup that doesn’t want to risk spending a week away from the lab. Operating in a fully virtual environment, Geek Pop has full eco-credentials, with its stars arriving via http rather than their personal jets.”

“Judging by the eclectic content of the 08 event, this virtual festival has much to commend it. Playing to its eco-credentials, the event has a low carbon footprint - on account of it taking place only in cyberspace - and promises to be something of a hoot.”

Australia’s Diffusion Science featured an interview with festival organiser Hayley Birch in their 2008 Christmas Special.

Capital Science at Imperial College bigged up Geek Pop in their 24th February 2009 show.
