Hello friends!

Welcome back to another CYBERWORLD MINI update. This week we are getting prepared for an Art~Hack takeover! This NZ-based techy creative group meets every Thursday to jam and share projects, and we’ll host them online… on an oil rig in the middle of the ocean.

That’s right, we’re putting you to work extracting precious crude oils to power the DOOF! Some of you might recognise the location from an earlier party, but DOOF CORP updated it with new items, secret interactive areas and lots of pyrotechnics for that good ol’ dieselpunk vibe. Art~Hack has open DJ decks for folks to play and will stream live to the event. It’s happening tomorrow, Thursday 14 May from 7-10pm (NZT) with more details below in the “Upcoming Doofs” section. I really, really hope we do not accidentally cause an oil spill.

See you there!

BOOF’S CORNER

THE THING I AM MOST EXCITED ABOUT IN THE UPDATED OIL RIG DOOF IS MORE FIRE! ANYWAY… MUSIC IS AWESOME… HERE’S SOME I LIKE

• Erika De Casier - What U Wanna Do? (DJ G2G Club Edit) - THIS SONG MAKES ME WISH I HAD A DRIVERS LICENSE CUZ I WOULD DRIFT TO IT (I AM TOO SHORT TO SEE ABOVE THE WHEEL)

• Hot Dad - I’m a Believer (2020 Remaster) - I LOVE SYNTH POP, SHREK, AND HOT DADS!! WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO SAY!??

• Versalife - Perceptual Time Dilation - BIONICAL SENT ME THIS FROM HIS BATHTIME PLAYLIST AND I THOUGHT IT WAS KINDA WEIRD SINCE HE'S LITERALLY AN EVIL ROBOT

Gidget’s Updates

We’ve been hard at work on the new backend and infrastructure for the doof, and hope to do a test run for Art~Hack on the new system. More specifically, we’ve been working on the performer view and trying to make the backstage experience run smoother. Since we’re the ones running the stream for Art~Hack, no one else will see it yet except us, but isn’t that cool?
