Fan Reviews from Theater screenings of This Binary Universe, Fall '06

" The screening of this binary universe was one of the coolest things I have ever been to. Having BT himself share his work with his fans directly meant so much to me and allowed me to connect with the music in a more personal way. It was great to be in the company of other true fans (while some artists would do some hokey radio station give away for something like this rather than spreading info via fan sites and having it be a small showing). I had the unique experience of sitting directly behind BT in the theater and to see him smile at parts in the movie, bob his head with others etc made it even more special as you could see just how much this work of art meant to him. I'd have to say BT is the coolest, friendliest artist I have ever met. He came up to my friend and I while we were waiting in line and said something to the effect of "thank you so much for coming out to see the show, I've been working hard in there to get it sounding perfect, I can't wait to share this with you". The movie and music are amazing but in a small review like this I can't even scratch the surface of reviewing the movie/album :)"

" Entering the theater I had no idea what to expect, the information was sketchy and I had never met him before. I got in line with the few other people in front of me. Moments later BT walked down the stairs, it seemed so unreal for him to greet people in line. He gladly took pictures with me and signed my vinyl, it was too cool. Once in the theater he sat right behind us, I thought it was cool for him to sit with us! The films were awesome, so much work was put into them, and they were simply amazing! So much work and dedication was put into these films! The music was awesome, I have been waiting for so long to hear BT”s new music. I loved it! After the show BT gladly answered any question that fans asked. He was so enthused to let people know about the music and film and what’s next in his career. BT is just a music genius, and is very friendly and outgoing for his fans!"

" I was totally floored. I expected it to be a big event with tons of people, and then BT might come out for five minutes at the end. From the moment that he greated people at the door, I realized it wasn't going to be like that. It was exciting that he took the time to thoroughly introduce the movie, and that he had to be basically dragged out of the Q&A session after what seemed an hour by his handlers. From start to finish, it was clear how much he cared about connecting with his fans and delivering them this amazing and unexpected gift. Oh yeah, and the movie was great and the music revolutionary."

-Tola Marts, Issaquah, WA

Its been several days since the Seattle screening of TBU and it all feels so surreal. The night overall was incredible. Although incredible doesn't quite fit. TBU is beautiful, truly. Such a rich gift to put out into the world. I wish I had any kind musical knowledge to fully understand each nuance, but music was never my gift. It is however, BT's. His passion and energy are so contagious. It's so rare to meet such an authentic and genuine artist who is able to emote so much of himself into what he creates. I have nothing but the sincerest admiration. I am happy that I was able to be a part of such an evocative experience. Thanks again for your efforts
