*This event will take place at Ausland*

 *Mario de Vega*
His work overlaps relations between stability, failure, simulation and
ambiguity with site-specific interventions, sound events, process-oriented
projects, sculpture, modified electronics and sound improvisation. As an
improviser, his practice explores the value of fragility & in-determination
involving a wide range of customized objects, analog and modified
electronics, turntables and computer based interfaces in different
combinations. He performs both solo and in collaborations with numerous
other musicians exploring the tension between analog and digital media. His
work produces acoustic situations for specific spaces using the context to
generate ambiguous relations through sound and has appeared in Galleries,
Museums, Concert Halls & unconventional spaces throughout Europe, Mexico,
United States, Canada, Russia, Korea and Japan.

*Bill Kouligas* is a sound artist and designer, better known for his solo
project Family Battle Snake. He also runs the sound art label PAN with vinyl
editions of electronic and experimental artists. His music captures a
variety of different sounds and time periods filtered through an imaginary
urban soundscape. Emerging through a noise underground, ominous like a cloak
of whispers, he now floats on a plane ebbing and flowing between electronic
tape music and gluey entropicalia. With the use of analogue synth, tape
manipulation and electronics he employs warm drones and a musique concrete
approach through structured perspectives on a journey across time.

Bill has collaborated with the likes of C. Spencer Yeh, Destroy All
Monsters, Sudden Infant, John Olson (Wolf Eyes), Joseph Hammer (LAFMS), Ralf
Wehowsky/RLW, Chris Corsano, Damo Suzuki, Christian Weber, Anla Courtis,
Astro, MV Carbon, Pete Nolan (Magik Markers), Valerio Cosi, Birds of Delay
and Kouhei Matsunaga to name a few.

*Valerio Tricoli*
His compositions bridge musique concrète and conceptual forms of sound (i.e.
the radical interest in how reality, virtuality, memory relate to each other
during the acoustic event): music, as a recorded or as a
synthetically-modeled sound, is always hovering between the “here and now”
of the event and the shady domain of memory – distant but at the same time
present, like a déjà–vu experience. Tricoli plays live music with electronic
instruments – most of them analogue – (reel-to-reel tape recorders,
synthesizers, microphones, light effects, ultrasonic speakers), however the
structure of the device is ever-changing, seeking multiple relations between
the performers, the device and the space in which the event takes place.
