Antimatter
What is the voltage of static electricity that courses over your skin standing each of five million hairs straight on end? Can the answer be derived quantitatively from the waveforms cascading against malleus, anvil and stapes to trigger follicle surge? Or is math itself lost in the abstraction to qualitative, perceptual, and metaphysical sense? Such shortcuts to madness are best explored through the complexities of minimal materialism, particles of sound as sculpted by Antimatter, the solo project of Xopher Davidson.

Laetitia Sonami
Discovery narrows, contours deepen to become edges tipping your balance, opening a course below the beaten path. Tracing arabesques, Laetitia Sonami pilots a bathysphere of fantasmic depth extending her body to entwine, tentacular, across oceans of sound. "In ancient times when we peered endlessly into hazy green screens flickering like glow worms, adding a bit of flesh was irresistible" she recalls. As early as 1991, Sonami would "leave some of the clamour behind" in order to explore "attractive weaknesses...the boundaries of expression, the pushback on one's intent." Thirty years deep, a triangulated ring appeared in her work, the Spring Spyre, like an aperture in her chambered nautilus it reveales darkening depths still to be plumbed. When you find Sonami beginning her set inside the Peacock Lounge, don't bother taking a big breath first, there's plenty down there.

Contrast of extremes in real-time using purpose-built interfaces, spatial audio, interactive systems, intermedia art, musical applications of machine-learning, experimental sound design, and hardware-hacking

Twenty-year veteran of subterranean music, Brandon Yahiro-Taylor, has recorded and performed in a dizzying array of styles, from freeform minimalism to harsh noise to breakcore to experimental metal to indie rock to ambient and musique concrete.
