Originally from the Pacific Northwest, BRYAN EUBANKS has been working with the soprano saxophone and an open-circuit electronic instrument of his own design for over seven years. He has presented his work in festivals and venues across the US and Europe in real-time settings and installations as a solo and collaborative artist. Eubanks' solo work is primarily concerned with psycho-acoustic and acoustic phenomena through the use of continuous tones and relations of frequency.

Byron Westbrook is a Brooklyn-based composer/sound artist. For the past 3 years he has acted as bandleader for the post-rock ensemble The Winter Pageant and has recently toured as part of Rhys Chatham's new band Essentialist. CORRIDORS is his solo audio/video project exploring the architectural qualities of sound using improvised dialogue between multiple sound sources. Manipulated and sympathetic guitar feedback drones from amplifiers placed around the room interact with electronically processed instrumentation and found sounds.

Annette Krebs (b. 1967) studied classical guitar in Frankfurt/Main. She has lived in Berlin since 1993 as a freelance guitarist, and has worked intensively in the crossover area between improvisation and composition, exploring the possibilities of the electro-acoustic guitar with regard to sound structure, noise, the mixing of materials, and space. Various preparation methods are used to produce noises and sounds, which are then enlarged as with a magnifying glass through the use of different microphones and pickups, so they can be used as musical material.

Sawako is a Tokyo/NYC-based sound sculptor who understands the value of dynamics and the power of silence. After beginning in video art, Sawako shifted her focus from the video camera to sound. Once through the processor named Sawako, sounds in everyday life - field recordings, instruments, voice and electronic sounds - float in space vividly with a digital yet organic texture. Almost paradoxical in nature, Sawako’s music encompasses both deep contemplation and a arbitrary randomness of having totaly no intentions. Such coexistence of contorol and randomness comes from her experiences in fields of art management, documentary video, and, workshops with nonprofessional people.
