Beth will be in town today. And a couple things:

• The Isamu Noguchi Garden Museum re-opens with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon on Saturday, June 12 as part of the Summer in Long Island City Opening Weekend.
• The 2nd Annual USA Air Guitar Championships will also occur on Saturday, June 12. $12 at the door or $10 if you buy a ticket ahead of time (you love it). Their web site has video of last year's Hello Kitty chestplate wearing world champion. (via Flavorpill)
• The latest issue of The Iowa Review Web includes Noah Wardrip-Fruin as a featured artist. Watch for photo and video documetation of Screen, as well as witty interview banter.

  There's also a review of Windows and Mirrors: Interaction Design, Digital Art, and the Myth of Transparency, by Jay David Bolter and Diane Gromala, which examines Text Rain by Camille Utterback.
