It’s the holidays, and you’ve got a hankering for a getaway or even a pretty bad case of cabin fever. But maybe you’ve already blown your budget on a Black Friday mad shopping dash or you simply don’t have the slightest idea on what to do. Look no farther than your own backyard for some low-cost or no-cost festive fun 24\/7\/365\u2014or 366 in a leap year, which happens to be just two months away at the time of this post!<\/p>\n
The brainchild of NYC-via-Ohio experimental composer Phil Kline, Unsilent Night<\/a> is not your grandma’s (let alone your great-great-great-grandma’s!) caroling round. It features four different tracks randomly synced in an ambient sonic swirl on boomboxes and MP3 players. A holiday soundscape tradition since 1992, this is an event that can be enjoyed locally or internationally. Unsilent Night is held throughout the month of December across North America, recently expanding to Asia, Africa, and Australia.<\/p>\n Here’s a clip of my 2012 Santa Monica shindig:<\/p>\n
