Performers:

Francisco López
international sound artist based in Madrid, Spain. Francisco uses field recordings collected from the Brazilian rain forest to create monolithic sound structures which consume space and alter one's perception of time. [website]

Steve Barsotti
sound artist and educator who lives in Seattle. His work includes studio based explorations of sound for radio broadcast, site specific sound installations, improvisation on electric/acoustic instruments and sound as an integral part of performance. [website]

rebreather (Christopher DeLaurenti & Alex Keller)
abrasive, sparse, ethereal, abrupt and wistful, rebreather improvise live electronic music from the digital glossolalia of sabotaged consumer electronics, homebrew circuits and obsolete devices. [website]

Jon Tulchin
local sound artist who works with contact mics, found objects, field recordings, and invented instruments. Jon is interested in the projection of sound through alternative mediums (wood, metals, water, etc..) His experiments with amplification allow us to hear the subtleties of vibration.

Michael Prather
local sampler/turntablist who is fascinated with the transformative properties of sound. Michael mixes, degrades, processes and samples any sound source he can get his hands on creating static impressions, oppressive noise walls and foggy environments. Sonic recycling at its best.

Cost: $5.00 suggested donation. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
