UNSOUND is Jim Speer & Cap'n Mikee Ciul.
Mike Ciul: effects devices, samplers, thumb-piano, vocals
Jim Speer: MIDI Chapman Stick, loops, crumhorn, shahnai
Unsound's screeching ambience and raucous lullabies are made by connecting electronic sound gadgets in unnatural ways. The feedback loops made with MIDI and audio signals are so complex that the electronics behave like an independent musician. Unsound improvise music and tell stories in the form of low-budget performance art tableaux.
THE PERFECT PIECES OF FRUIT is Ted Casterline, Yanni Papadopoulos, Dave Champion, and Tara Burke.
Ted Casterline : percussion
Yanni Papadopoulos : guitar
Dave Champion : Electronified Trombone
Tara Burke : Farfisa organ
? : Trumpet
Perfect Pieces of Fruit is a psychic delicatessen of drones and loops, coated with sugar and viscous agar agar. Perhaps a soundtrack to dreaming lemurs, at other times the hallucination of a lonely parking attendent, PPoF's septet will make your teeth rot and your belly full with natural and artificial colors, flavors and soundwaves.
DOMINIC ZAPPA is formerly Bondra, formerly Asoa. Keyboardist and sonic mixologist Zappa has been engaged with himself for a year now, and this perfdormance will be yet another example of his flagrant and uninhibited musical exhibitionism. Just shameless!
ANDROID is Andrew Eisenberg. Taking a breather from WKDU DJing this term and an exciting series of DIY post-rave Raves, Andrew will be engineering the antique Gate facility which has mouldered for a hundred years since it was last used by zealous Theosphical practitioners. [Andrew and the ImagiNation Crew were responsible for the barrage of droplets a half a year ago at the First Friday spectacles.]
