O Music Awards Unboxed Is Heading To SXSW With Miracles of Modern Science
We’re pulling out our summer clothes and training up our livers over here at MTV HQ, as in mere days, we’re taking off for Texas! Last month, the O Music Awards held the first ever edition of its new Unboxed Event series, and this SXSW we’re giving all y’all who couldn’t make it to New York a second chance to celebrate.
O Music Awards Unboxed is a New York-based event series that pulls together all aspects of the O Music Awards into one wild night: technology, music, audience interaction and our own special brand of WTF?! weirdness.
The O Music Awards — for those not in the know — is MTV’s brand new awards show dedicated to honoring achievements in music and technology. We’ve hosted two shows in the past year — with the third looming on the horizon. “Why dole out awards so often?” you may wonder. Well, because technology never slows down, and in accordance with that scene’s chimera-esque nature, neither do we. Our new Unboxed events series is just another way of keeping the celebration going year-round.
Our first event took place at The Studio at Webster Hall in New York City, and featured performances by MNDR and Miracles of Modern Science, as well as a preview of image/video-sharing app Cameo, an awesome installation called The Rainbow Machine, and a music video shoot for MNDR.
Well, this month, we’re taking some of the elements of our first event — namely Miracles of Modern Science — and teaming up with our friends BangOn NYC to throw another Unboxed event — this time in the sultry climes of Texas.
