In addition to providing project management, Hello, The Future! recorded one of the tracks. The new album was released on September 11, 2011 (the tenth anniversary of the Twin Towers attack) to raise money for the FDNY Foundation; over $5000 in donations were raised from sales.[8][9][10] KickstarterIn August 2012, Dieker ran a successful kickstarter campaign to support the development of Geek Girl EP and Giant Robot Album.[11][12] Band membersNicole Dieker studied composition as an undergrad at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio (where she performed with the Miami University Choraliers) and attended graduate school at Illinois State University.[2][13] DiscographyAlbums available on CD
