    About This Event

    WordHack at Wonderville features Jenny Goldstick, Amad Ansari and The Open Projector, three New York–based rock/pop acts that often appear on chiptune and experimental bills. Each favors direct songcraft and tight arrangements over spectacle, and their sets are rooted in the city's DIY live rooms and Wonderville's arcade-and-projection setting.

    About WordHack

    WordHack is appearing live at Wonderville in New York City, framed as a rock/pop set with a rotating cast of local and touring voices. Featured performers include FORT90 Broadcast System, Robscure, Granata, Woodah, and Ruggz, each bringing different approaches to melody, rhythm, and stage presence. In a city where DIY venues often function as informal archives, the show reads as a snapshot of a current scene rather than a polished statement. Its value is documentary: you can hear where these sounds are headed.
