nerdcore for life

Last summer I was one of the camera people for the documentary, Nerdcore for Life. Nerdcore is hip-hop that is performed by geeks and computer nerds. They rap about computer games, programming and other dorky shit. Nerdcore is a small but growing niche in the ever expanding world of hip-hop. Several of the rappers in the film live here in the NW and one of the featured groups, Optimus Rhyme is frequently played on KEXP. The film's trailer has generated quite a bit of buzz on the web and hopefully the film's director, Dan Lamoureux will get it into several film festivals. Here's the trailer.
