Jessica Ekomane                French-born and Berlin-based electronic musician and sound artist. Her practice unfolds around live performances and installations.

Artist and theorist occupied with an investigation of the links between the earth (geophysical phenomena), software, and the human psyche (psychogeophysics) through the construction of experimental situations (performance, laboratories, walks, and workshops), material artworks, and texts.

Víctor Mazón Gardoqui       
Artist and interface designer. Mazón’s work questions perception, altered states, and vulnerability through un/stable arrangements. His work materializes in three main fields: actions or site-specific performances through experimental processes, exhibitions as consequences of previous actions, and collective work through collaborative groups and seminars in cultural and academic centres. 

Woonjii         
DJ. Founder of experimental collective Yisekai, and a veteran crate digger based in Hong Kong. Prior to diving into the world of DJing, Woonjii was already immersed in promoting and curating licensed music for retailers in APAC as sales and marketing in a company that is now part of Apple Music for Business.

JUNKO   
Japanese vocalist and a longtime member of the notoriously unhinged noise outfit Hijokaidan (Emergency staircase), founded in 1978. While Western critics have often struggled to get beyond the so-called harsh, confrontational quality of Junko’s sound, she is perhaps best understood as an artist who radically expands her audience’s interpretive capacities, working in a mode too improvisational to be punk, too chaotic to be free jazz, and yet too intimate to be dismissed. 

Luciano Maggiore
Musician working in the field of electroacoustic music and sound diffusion. His interest is focused on the architectural and psychoacoustic as well as dynamic and directional values of sound with a strong emphasis on fixed sounds. His works are published by Balloon & Needle, Boring Machines, Consumer Waste, Palustre, Senufo editions, 1000Füssler, Triscele Registrazioni and Tulip records. He lives and works in London. 

Alice Kemp
Artist exploring an idiosyncratic praxis involving experimental music, audio composition, public/private performance, installation, drawing, writing, lo-fi video, and object making. Her work is informed by subtle states of trance, dream, and disturbance. She has released audio/musical works through labels such as Fragment Factory (DE), Harbinger Sound (UK), Erratum (FR), and Tochnit Aleph (DK). Kemp is a Schimpfluch affiliate and a human ex-voto, living and working in Devon, England.

Elvin Brandhi 
Improviser, producer, and sound artist from Bridgend, Wales, who builds aberrant beats from field recordings, tape, vinyl, instruments, and voice. Her live shows are unyielding bursts of erupting animation where her caustic stream of consciousness cavorts with restless, glitched-out heaviness. Her creative momentum comprises a range of collaborations and an endless nomadism.

Davide Tidoni 
Artist working from the boundaries of physical, perceptual, and affective dimensions of sound. His work addresses questions regarding interactions with acoustic space, interdependence, and impermanence. His practice also includes interests in the use of sound in counter-cultures and social contexts of struggle. 

Martin Khanja (aka Lord Spike Heart) and Sam Karugu emerge from Nairobi’s flourishing underground metal scene as former members of the bands Lust of a Dying Breed and Seeds of Datura. Together in 2019 they formed DUMA (Darkness in Kikuyu).

Ioana Vreme Moser
Romanian sound artist engaged with hardware electronics, speculative research, and tactile experimentation. In her practice, she uses rough electronic processes to obtain different materialities of sound. She places electronic components and control voltages in different situations of interaction with her body, organic materials, lost and found items, and environmental stimuli.  

Mark Fell
Multidisciplinary artist based in Rotherham (UK). His practice draws upon electronic music subcultures, experimental film, contemporary philosophy, and radical politics. Over the past 30 years, Fell’s output has grown into a significant body of work – from early electronic sound works and recorded pieces, to installation, critical texts, curatorial projects, educational systems, and choreographic performances.

Mattin
Artist, musician, and theorist working conceptually with noise and improvisation. Through his practice, writing, and pedagogy, he explores performative forms of estrangement as a way to deal with structural alienation. In 2017, he completed a Ph.D. at the University of the Basque Country under the supervision of the philosopher Ray Brassier.

Oren Ambarchi
Ambarchi has released numerous recordings for labels such as Touch, Editions Mego, Drag City, PAN, Southern Lord, Kranky and Tzadik. His acclaimed trio with Keiji Haino and Jim O’Rourke performs in Tokyo annually with many of their concerts documented on Ambarchi’s Black Truffle label. Black Truffle has over 90 releases to date.

Roc Jiménez de Cisneros
EVOL’s approach can be understood as an aesthetic exploration of algorithmic composition and a deconstruction of rave culture. His work has been released by Entr’acte, Mego, Presto!? and fals.ch, and on his own record label, ALKU, which he co-directs with Anna Ramos since 1997. 

Rudolf Eb.Er
Also known as Runzelstirn & Gurgelstøck, Eb Er. founded the Schimpfluch extreme and outsider artist collective in Zürich in 1987. Schimpfluch exponents are highly regarded for their unique and obscure aural and visual work; their confrontational, physically demanding performances and shock treatments remove the boundaries of the body and open up access to the collective unconscious. Rudolf Eb.er’s research de-occults the psychic body through psycho-physical tests and trainings. 

Russell Haswell
In addition to his work in galleries, nightclubs, and festivals, he has also released a huge amount of records and CDs on labels including Editions Mego, Warp, and Diagonal Records. Russell’s work is deeply inspired by various forms of extreme music ranging from Detroit Techno to Black Metal, and he is perhaps most well known for creating highly innovative, often improvised, experimental, critical, and abrasive works.

Hans Tammen
Tammen is currently teaching at the School of Visual Arts and NYU Steinhardt. From 2001 to 2014, he worked at Harvestworks Digital Media Art Center in NYC, where he was responsible for the Client Services, Education, and Artist in Residence program. As an arbitrator at BTQ in the 1990s, he spent a decade advising unions about electronic monitoring and surveillance at the workplace and negotiating contracts and agreements to minimize surveillance aspects.
