Boba Fett changed their name to Challenge of the Future for fear of being sued by George Lucas, and upon graduating relocated to Brooklyn, NY. There they helped lay the ground work for the late 90s Willamsburg music scene. Also during this period, Challenge of the Future were often invited back to the Bard area to play shows. In 2001, Challenge of the Future broke up with various members joining other musical projects. Aaron Diskin and Simon Marcus formed the band Lycaon Pictus with Bard alum John Christopher Morton (Aaron also joined the Punk-Klezmer band Golem). Nick Zinner devoted his energy to his then side project, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, who shortly thereafter became international stars.
