About DJ Kon
Nicknamed “the Boston Disco don,” DJ Kon is renowned for his unmatched crate-digging and remixing skills, and for marrying an encyclopedic knowledge of musical history with a progressive creative sensibility. Though he’s best known for his work behind the decks, Kon is also a talented producer, writer and b-boy. He’s been digging in crates since 1976, DJing since 1985, and spinning in clubs since 1991. Kon means “King of Nothing,” and seeks to place the love of music above his own work. One half of the world-famous duo Kon and Amir, he has for years brought his deep knowledge of obscure goodies to clubs and festivals worldwide.
About Liz Callahan
Hi folks, I am the lizard behind the cards! I have been reading tarot for 6 years now, and it has been one of the most meaningful practices in my life to date <3 I am a firm believer in the power of introspection, of connecting with ourselves, and in turn, allowing the world to connect with us. I do not prefer specific spreads or cards, but rather the process of learning about others through their reading. When I’m not peeking at your cards, I am an avid birdwatcher and lover of Dungeons and Dragons! Hope to see you at my tent during the ICA party 🙂
