The 2nd Annual Guthman Musical Instrument Competition ended Saturday, February 27 at Georgia Institute of Technology, in Atlanta. Severe snow storms in New York made it difficult, if not impossible for some entrants to make the trip. I didn’t win a prize, but I did have a highly rewarding experience, some of which I can share with you here in the form of video, images, and links.

My submission for the Second Annual Guthman Musical Instrument Competition was accepted last week. The competition will take place at the Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology on Friday, February 26, 2010 and Saturday February 27, 2010. As mentioned in the earlier postabout my recent video, Wired also featured this article about last year’s competition.
I will make more details available here as they become available, or visit the Georgia Tech website.
