Austin Museum of Digital Art (AMODA)'s Digital Showcase, the bi-monthly mixed-media spectacle of visual art and electronic music, returns to Copa Bar this Saturday. Headlining the music portion of the evening is LA's Ken Gibson aka [a]pendics.shuffle, formerly of Austin's early 90s noise-pop/shoegaze indie band Furry Things. Relocating to the depraved sunny shores of SoCal nearly a decade ago to work on experimental, computer-driven eletronic music -- and, supposedly, employing a half-broken sampler given to him by King Coffee of The Butthole Surfers -- Gibson returns to Central Texas this weekend to show off some of his "dark, infectious, and heavily glitched house music." Also on the bill are Chicago's Kate Simko, Houston's (DJ) Cuba Gooding Jr, Austin's Preparation Mysterious H, and 2nd Street Fashionista John Gomi of Gomikitti.

The other half of the showcase is centered around a selection of motion graphics and digital video artists from all over the world: London's Christian Hogue (digital graphics guru from several recent 007 films and the morph artist from Super Mario Bros!) shares screen time with Tokyo team Jetlag, Melbourne's experimental design studio Pandarosa, and several others.
