Gina Biver

is a composer of music for large chamber and electroacoustic ensembles, choir, dance, and film. Much of her work involves electronics, intermedia, and the crossing of boundaries between art forms that coalesces into a unified conceptual model. Gramophone has called her a “musical force of nature,” and in one of her favorite reviews, Midwest Review stated “She doesn't look like an art chick that would show up in a dress made of meat but I guess looks can be deceiving... Prepare for a sonic walk on the wild side.” Gina collaborates with filmmakers, multimedia and visual artists, DIY instrument makers, poets and painters. She is a champion of new music and founder/director of DC- based Fuse Ensemble. Her newest release Fuse Ensemble: NIMBUS — a collaboration between poet Colette Inez and Ms. Biver — is available on Neuma Records.

Jeremy Thomas Kunkel

As a broad based artist, I work in a fluidly dynamic process of craft, concept, and material to inform and orchestrate sculptures and performative acts. Compelled by contemporary conditions, my work addresses human centric perception and other means of influence that sway or corrupt an individual's act of agency from within oneself.  

Reed Griffith

A new media artist who  combines the development  of emerging technologies  with an investigative studio  arts practice. His work is reflective of our aesthetic interpretations and existential experiences that occur within the context of modern society and systems we have built for ourselves. Media, Government, Legal and many others, are systems which pervade our daily lives and often affect us in ways which are unseen. His body of work uses the aesthetics of DIY technologies, digital product development, nostalgia, and projection mapped video, to create installations and new media work. These pieces draw the viewer into seeing  the world through a lens that exposes the viewer to these  unseen experiences.
