Geekpop '09

I was catching up on my podcasts listening to the Naked Scientists last week and they highlighted an online music festival called Geekpop. Geekpop is a virtual music festival with music about and inspired by science. The festival has several different stages you can explore and listen to music from different bands. There is even a lost and found in case you misplace something while attending the festival.

I have long been a fan of music that incorporates science such as Lynda Williams to the Chromatics. There are several sites with links to science songs that have helped me build a pretty geeky mp3 collection.

Some people think its odd to have science songs, but would you rather your kid listen to gangsta rap, or MC Hawking?
