dAVID mOSCOVICH
founded Louffa Press to promote new, innovative microfictions in limited run, handmade editions. His stories and interviews have appeared in Word Riot, Rain Taxi, The Rumpus, Fringe and others. He has been playing the amplified bicycle for seven years and lives in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.

tAMARA yADAO employs structure in improvisation to highlight failure aesthetics and meaning in conceptual methods of sound-making and juxtaposition. Current explorations include compositions for re-purposed machines, electroacoustic composition in virtual space and the spoken word. Materials may include house-hold electronics, mechanical instruments, guitar and voice. Pieces are purposed for the single channel, multi-channel performance installation and live performance.

mIKEY IQ jONES often works in a solo medium, using primitive sampling devices to process and arrange live sound materials drawn from the artist's voice, body, and arsenal of found object percussion. Glycemic is an improvised text arrangement derived from the artist's reading excerpts of his diabetic food diary, which logs blood glucose levels, medication dosages, and food intake.

Kurt Gottschalk and Tamara Yadao create mid-air palindromes with guitars and speaking voices. Theirs is a geometry of oratory where words and meaning are of slippery significances only as important as the listener wants them to be.
