Shatter Pattern
Through sound, dance, costumed computation and visualization, Julia Litman-Cleper blazes spidering trails across fragile shells, divining ways down to survivable desire, to the bathy froth of time that predates vision. Worlds await along brachia, in the cold inhale, where shatter precedes pattern, inside the Peacock Lounge.

Gustavo Pastre
Salvage reanimator, Pastre's gear is all of custom design and handmade. So it's tough to guess just how you're hearing the layered sonic planes you'll hear. His very hands seem to vanish, reaching out to buttons and potentiometers that aren't there but in his mind. There phantom fingers find still smaller circuits working their impossibilities.
