Alberto De Campo (AT) Berlin - Computer Improvisation
Alberto de Campo has studied classical composition, jazz guitar, and
electronic music in Austria and the US. After working at UC Santa
Barbara, designing experimental software instruments with Curtis
Roads, he taught at Media Arts Academy Cologne, the Institute for
Electronic Music in Graz, and at TU Berlin. He held a professorship
for Music Informatics at Music University Duesseldorf, and currently
is Professor for Generative Art at Arts Univ. Berlin.
He plays with powerbooks_unplugged (just in time programming on mostly
unamplified laptops); improvisation groups with acoustic instruments
such as Quiet Noise Quartet, Syntopia Ensemble, and ad hoc
constellations; electronic music with BlippooHazard (four musicians
playing the Blippoo Box, a hardware synth by Rob Hordijk).
Recent projects include creating software instruments and sound
installations with Florian Hecker, e.g. 'No Night No Day' at Biennale
Venice, and AuditoryObjects (Bordeaux), and collaborating with Marcus
Schmickler and Carsten Goertz on "Bonner Durchmusterung", a project
involving sonification und visualisation of atronomical data.

DJ Sniff (JP) from steim/Amsterdam - Experimental Turntablist
believes in the instrumental autonomy of the turntable and the
musicianship of the DJ. He is a turntable musician working in the
field of improvised and experimental music. His music focuses on the
live reconstruction and narratization of the phonographically
amplified - the music, the sound, the technology and the past. To
achieve this, he uses a unique setup consisting of hand-made hardware
interfaces and a custom Max/MSP software along with one turntable and
DJ mixer. He is also a concert/event curator for electronic music and
a researcher of music technology. Since 2005 he has been involved with
STEIM's (Studio for Electro-Instrumental Music, Amsterdam) R&D lab.
From 2007 on, he is STEIM's Artistic Director, curating public events
and representing the institution through performances and lectures.
dj sniff regularly performs with computer musician Yutaka Makino as
Audile and with saxophonist Keir Neuringer and Bassist Raed Yassin.

EVOL (ES) from Barcelona - Extreme Computer Music Cell
EVOL is a computer music cell started in Barcelona in 1996. Their work
has been released on internationally acclaimed record labels such as
Mego, Entr'acte, Lucky Kitchen, Diskono, Scarcelight, Antifrost,
fals.ch or their own ALKU.
In 2003 the group started a series of electroacoustic pieces entitled
'Punani' which addresses some of the main aspects of their work,
namely: algorithmic composition, noise, psychedelia, system
trajectories and the musical application of fractal geometry and other
mathematical phenomena, somewhere in between Denis Smalley's concept
of "spectromorphology", black magic and what Agostino Di Scipio called
"functional iteration synthesis". Recently they have released 'Punani
Xerrameca', a 10" on ALKU, and 'Fart Synthesis' a cassette on Presto!?

Kaffe Matthews (UK) from London - 8 Multichannel Performance
Kaffe Matthews was born in Essex, England, and lives and works in
London. Since 1996 she has been making new electro-acoustic music
through a system of self designed software matrices through which she
pulls and pushes different sounds live. The variety of sounds, things
and places she has worked with have ranged from self played violin and
theremin, sounds of spaces, kite strings on an uninhabited Scottish
Island, flight data from NASA scientists, Scottish and Irish pipers,
melting ice in Quebec, the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, vibrating
wires in the West Australian outback and recently a Vietnamese
monochord and seaside sounds processed with 11 year olds to be
dispersed by visitor pedalled bicycles. She has just returned from a
month of working with sharks and conservation scientists on the
Galapagos Islands.

Suk-Jun Kim (KR) Berlin - Imaginary Electroacoustic Music
A Korean Composer whose main output is electroacoustic music, Suk-Jun
Kim’s music focuses mainly on the sense of places that are fantastic,
imaginary, magical, and realistic, where listeners can visit, stop by,
and dwell on. His music has received a number of international awards:
Métamorphoses (2000 & 2008), Regional Composition Prize at 2008 ICMC
in Belfast, CIMESP (2007), Bourges (2001), ASCAP/SEAMUS Student
Commission Competition (2001) as well as mentions and finalists in
MUSICA VIVA (2005) and MUSICA NOVA (2002 & 2005).
He now lives in Berlin as an Aritist-in-Residence composer at DAAD.
His research concentrates on listening and imagining in
electroacoustic music and a framework based on ‘acousmatic reasoning,’
a listening process using both spectromorphological and semiotic
listening modes, which listeners of electroacoustic music employ to
‘make sense’ out of the acousmatic experiences.
