Luciano Maggiore (IT. Revox / Electronics)
Luciano Maggiore (Palermo 1980) lives and works in Bologna.
 Musician and
filmmaker, he develops immersive experiences in which ephemerality, illusion
and monumentality coexist, contributing to the creation of perceptual
displacements. 
Luciano Maggiore's music is strongly related to the use of
magnetic tapes as well as of various kinds of electrical devices. His
performances are characterized by a strong impact in terms of volume and
quantity of information which is created by the interaction between
speakers, ear and architecture.
 Beauty, contemplation, relationship between
sound and architecture, acoustic illusions, improvvisation, continuum,
concrete and electroacoustic music are the pivotal points of his practice
along with a multitude of unsaid concepts which emerge progressively from
his performances.
 He collaborates with the curatorial network Xing and is
one of the founders of Sant'Andrea degli amplificatori (a small and secret
venue for contemporary music). 
He works or worked, among others, with
Angstarbeiter, Auriga, Francesco Fuzz Brasini, John Duncan, Andrew L.
Hooker, Domenico Grenci, Sara Pantoli, Dominique Vaccaro, Virgilio
Villoresi, Zapruder Filmmakersgroup, Zimmerfrei, Enrico Malatesta, Seijiro
Murayama.
His works have been released by Incudine Records, Palustre,
Radical Matters and Boring Machines.

Dominique Vaccaro (IT. Tapes / Electronics)
Dominique Vaccaro is mainly focused on collage in a broad meaning of the
term, extending the field of action from the visual to include sound.
Self-taught musician, he has experimented for years with the various
possibilities of magnetic tape mixing short waves, field recordings, voice,
guitars and other instruments, objects, feedback and all kind of residual
sound. His approach to all of these is emotive, intimate and instinctive,
flowings of sonic improvisation alternating frenetic phrases with calm,
delicate moments. He has composed music for videos, performances as well for
theatre.

Rogelio Sosa (MX. Guitar / Electronics)
Rogelio Sosa was born in Mexico City in 1977. His work explores a wide range
of aspects that deal with sound morphology, structures of auditory
reference, intensification of the acoustic space and performativity. His
projects include solo and collective improvisations, music compositions,
sound actions and sound installations. All of these are produced using
various kinds of electronic media. 
He started studying musical composition
with Julio Estrada and then electroacoustic music at the Ateliers UPIC and
IRCAM in Paris. Later he pursued a master degree in Music and Technology at
the Paris 8 University. Since his return to Mexico City in 2004 his work has
focused in experimental music and sound art. 
His music has been released in
Sub Rosa, Important Records and Mode Records among others. Sosa has received
prizes and distinctions from the SCRIME and IMEB Contests in France, the
Luigi Russolo Contest in Italy, the EAR Electroacoustic Music Contest in
Hungary and the FONCA, Nuevas Resonancias, Visiones Sonoras and Centro
Multimedia - CENART Contests in Mexico.

Mario de Vega (MX. Raw electronics)
Mario de Vega was born in Mexico City in 1979. His work overlaps relations
between stability, failure, simulation and ambiguity with site-specific
interventions, sound events, electronic devices, process-oriented projects
and sculpture. 
In the context of music, 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. 
His work has appeared in different contexts
throughout Europe, Mexico, North America, Japan, Korea, Russia and South
America. Works and lives in Berlin and Mexico City.
