VJ/ AV artist Jonathan Womack, sometimes performing under the alias Vj Epileptic cut his teeth building prop design and visual sets for a local band in Seattle. Going independent, he began to play shows under the name Epileptic and picking up shows around town playing in a variety of visual styles, from slow geometric progressions with experimental electronic musician Noisepoet Nobody to full out psychedelic strobe-fests with DJ Diem. A member of the I Heart Shiva crew, he plays every other Saturday at the Baltic Room on Seattle’s Capitol Hill, live-mixing Bollywood movies to the groups mix of live drums and DJed Bhangra-hip-hop mash-ups. He is a member of the St. Louis hip-hop collective 932, and the in-house video director for their record label Hillbilly Bombshell. He has begun working with the can-can cabaret, designing visual sets and light props for an upcoming production and tour opening the The Seattle International Cabaret Festival. He has played the Photosynthesis Festival, The Showbox and Showbox Sodo, Neumos, Baltic Room, The King-Kat Theater, and The Fremont Abbey’s “The Round”.
This is his first appearance at Decibel Festival.
