Sudhu Tewari is an electronic composer, tinkerer and improvisor. An early interest in disassembling alarm clocks and coffee makers gave rise to electro-acoustic instruments constructed with the remains of discarded electronic equipment and big metal kinetic sound installations. Tewari also performs with guitarist Fred Frith as the duo Normal and recently began playing with Eric Glick Rieman and his modified Rhodes piano. In the past, Sudhu has had the pleasure of performing with a variety of talented improvisors including Tadashi Usami, Kazumoto Endo, Cenk Ergun, and Gunda Gottschalk. Sudhu has also been seen masquerading as a modern dancer with Group A. He received his BA in Music with an emphasis on Recording at Sonoma State University and completed his MFA in Electronic Music and Recording Media at Mills College in May 2002.

Cenk Ergun and Mark Bartscher are computer-based musicians and alumni of Mills College.

T/R is San Francisco musician/artist, Joshua Churchill, he will be collaborating with Tralphaz.
