Is Day for Night the Most Interesting Fest in the U.S.?

Look, just the announcement of Aphex Twin is enough to make you want to max out your credit card to catch Richard David James in the flesh. But now comes the true avalanche of treasures with the announcement of the full Day for Night lineup, taking place on December 17 and 18 in Houston. In addition to visual art — featuring names like United Visual Artists (UVA),Golan Levin, NONOTAK, Shoplifter, Tundra, Robert Seidel, Damien Echols, AV&C + Houzé, Michael Fullman of VT Pro Design, Ezra Miller, Jesse Kanda, Alex Czetwertynski, Herman Kolgen and others — comes the announcement that the Icelandic princess herself will join in on the action:

Acclaimed multi-disciplinary Icelandic artist Björk will perform unique live digital sets at Day for Night, and the festival will also serve as a venue for her interactive art experience, Björk Digital, an exhib­ition of digital and video works resulting from her collaborations with some of the finest visual artists and programmers in the world.

So, yes, Björk is in. As are Butthole Surfers, Blood Orange, the Jesus & Mary Chain, Squarepusher, Blonde Redhead, Kamasi Washington, John Carpenter, Liars, ARCA, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Nothing, Lower Dens, Chelsea Wolfe, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, Mary Lattimore and Jeff Zeigler ... the list is nearly endless. Check it out below, and bring a beach towel — you're gonna be mopping up a lot of drool. Tickets are on sale NOW.
