The Green Dam be Damned: Free Party Day Press Hits from using Laoban Soundsystem 1.0

[ End of the day photo by Shasha Liu ]
I wrote a quick summary of yesterday’s party and chronicled many press hits the event got on the Internet. I’m still not finding many photos which I know were being taken. If you took photos or wrote about yesterday, please do comment on this post or email me.
I also wrote about the Laoban Soundsystem 1.0 July 1st Green Day IDEA2009 on my wiki previously if you’d like to chip in some links or comments. I really want to use the speakers, granted they aren’t the big Laoban 2.0 stack, for more events in Beijing! Also, I really must learn more about this brilliant Ableton live software. I’ve avoided it because its not free software, but now I think I’ve got it running in Wine. And, regardless, I must learn about this software if myself or anyone else wants to make something similar for live audio/video performances in the same caliber, but as Free Software (and better!).
If you want a great analysis and take on the Chinese Green Dam Saga, please read Andrew Lih’s post and the other great ones by Rebecca MacKinnon.
