ABOUT THE ARTISTS
BARN OWL
San Francisco-based drone duo Barn Owl (guitarists Jon Porras and Evan Caminiti) follow in the footsteps of provocative avant-gardists Alice Coltrane and Keiji Haino, while building on the doom metal foundation planted by Black Sabbath.
JEFRE CANTU-LEDESMA
San Francisco-based multi-instrumentalist (Tarentel, the Alps) and founder of Root Strata label, Jefre's guitar beams directly down from Souvlaki Space Station and arrives gorgeously mangled via modular synthesizer. Romantically haloed chorus guitar floats widescreen across relentless static drum machines until the sky splits open in the final movement, spilling burning guitar fragments over everything.
PAUL CLIPSON
Paul Clipson works primarily in film, video and on paper, often collaborating on films, live performances and installations with sound artists and musicians, projecting largely improvised in-camera edited experimental films employing multiple exposures, dissolves and macro imagery that bring to light subconscious preoccupations and unexpected visual forms.
JOHN DAVIS
John Davis is an Oakland-based artist working with moving images and sound, expanding their relationships through experimentation, chance, collaboration and improvisation. Current performance work investigates various sound and image delivery systems, their material bi-products, and the range of sensory possibilities that exists between them.
MARIELLE JAKOBSONS
The work of Oakland-based sound artist and violinist Marielle Jakobsons focuses on experiences which are at once "natural" and technologically-altered. She performs regularly across the country in various musical acts: her solo project darwinsbitch, and in her bands myrmyr and TrioMetrik, as well as many side projects and ad hoc ensembles with friends and collaborators.
