He is currently fascinated with applying concepts used in computer graphics & animation to sound synthesis. He has performed din solo and with various other artists in London, including the Openlab collective.
Robert Atwood has been fascinated with feedback effects in sound and video for years, performing on hardware feedback devices on his own and wiht Toronto's Urban Refuse Group He has extended the feedback ideas into the development of the Variseq sequencer, since available ones did not do what he wanted; this was made possible by the FLOSS tools that were available. He has performed as part of London's Openlab collective on several occasions.
Geraldine McEwan? is a classically trained violinist and violin teacher who performs with string quartets and small orchestral groups in the London area.
pixelpusher (evan.raskob) is a live video performance artist, or "pixelist." After a few years of pixel-pushing across New York City, he now plies his trade on the mean streets of London. pixelpusher generates video out of a controlled chaos of photographic images, simple shapes, animations, sounds, and live video feeds. All software is homemade, all imagery are created live; things may go wrong in beautiful ways, and no performance is ever the same.
