Bent Fest is a festival dedicated to circuit bending,[1] held annually in the United States.[2] In 2006 it was held in New York City, and in 2007 held NYC, Los Angeles, and Minneapolis, where they were also held in 2008.[3] Wrote Wired in 2009, the "event revolves around the art of tearing apart electronic gadgets and bending their circuits to create new musical instruments. In addition to teaching D.I.Y. workshops on circuit bending, Bent is hosting a series of art installations and music concerts featuring various bent-circuit artists."[4]
