<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">NEW YORK, NY (August 9, 2011)—Today Dell and Intel unveiled Special Engagements, a new global concert series where fans control the show.
The monthly series is grounded in a technology-driven audience experience, which gives fans the power to collaborate with the performing artist before and during the show. Together, they will produce a once-in-a-lifetime event that is streamed live across
the world. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Special Engagements will take tuned-in music devotees to seven unexpected global locations for unique events featuring popular artists from around the world.
The series kicks off August 20 in Austin, Texas at the famed Lustre Pearl with Brooklyn-based urban pop sensation Theophilus London and host Telli from Ninjasonik. Following the inaugural Engagement, the series will travel to the U.K., Germany, China, Brazil
and France before returning to the U.S. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">This new initiative from Dell and Intel aims to bring audiences and bands closer than ever before in a series of unique experiences. Performing
artists will invite fans to command aspects of the show, from music selection and shout-outs to wardrobe, lighting and set design. Engagement via social media feeds will transform the global audience from mere spectators to directors, calling the shots and
shaping the show they want to watch, as they watch it. It’s this ability to determine aspects of the show that makes Dell and Intel Special Engagements so unique.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">For this first engagement, fans will determine which exclusive remix Theophilus London debuts during his set; send in visual interpretations of his album to accompany
the performance; submit for shout-outs; and even decide the shirt he wears on stage. Leading up to the debut event in Austin, they will determine factors of the performance via polling widgets, Twitter and Facebook.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Each Special Engagement will also feature a notable and dynamic host who will serve as a bridge between the artists and their fans. For the launch in Austin,
friend and collaborator of Theophilus London, Telli from Ninjasonik will use a Dell XPS high-performance laptop with 2<sup>nd</sup> generation Intel<sup>®</sup> Core™ processor technology to communicate with artist and audience, bringing the engagements to
life. Dell and Intel enable this interaction by providing technology and providing on-site expertise<a name="_GoBack"></a>.<span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Theophilus London, the artist who kicks-off the series, stated "I'm really excited to work with Noisey on this special series. I've got a few friends coming along
and a handful of surprises up my sleeve...not just for the lucky fans at the show in Austin but for everyone checking it out live online. TIMEZ will be weird!"<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">“Dell consumer solutions provide the ultimate in self-expression, and through our relationship with NOISEY, helps music lovers connect with their favorite artists
and discover new ones,” said Michael Tatelman, Vice President of North American sales and marketing for Dell’s Consumer, Small and Medium Business unit. “The Special Engagement concert series, which celebrates the combination of music and technology, comes

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">We are thrilled to see the Noisey platform further invite audience participation in the performances by artists worldwide,” said Director, OEM Co-Marketing Valerie
Wilkinson of Intel. “The Special Engagement series is one more way Intel, Dell and VICE are innovating for the music community through technology that is both unique and captivating.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Eddy Moretti, Executive Creative Director of VICE said, “Live music is magical. The artists and musicians that pour their hearts and souls into their work, these
people are magical. And beautiful. And very, very special. That’s why we at Dell, Intel and VICE created Noisey. And that’s why we created this revolutionary new live music show, “Special Engagements.” We want to bring people closer to the wonder of the live
music experience. It is wondrous. Long live rock and roll and all the other genres too.”
