JA$$IE
JA$$IE is a conceptual artist and DJ who works with sound and light as material. Her research and practice questions the relationship between humans, plants, and organisms through the lens of philosophical, scientific, interdisciplinary, technological, in-situ methodologies, using time-based media and systems of chance to engage with space. Her work oscillates between states of representation and fragmentation, acoustic and electronic, object and process and takes the form of site-specific, interactive sound installations, instrument design, drawings, collage, photography, video, music, performance, research, writing and works for internet and paper.

p cain
Pat Cain’s electronics are one-half of the DC experimental hip hop duo, model home. With Nappy Nappa (voice), they take a freewheeling and improvisational approach that forms a sonic journal, unfiltered and immediate. Cain’s solo excursions are also available on their Bandcamp page.

Sir E.U
“…idiosyncratic, innovative, relentless Aquarian leaning contrarian. As a multimedia artist, he has spent over half his life designing sound, specializing in rap music and performance that shapeshifts on his whim and refuses to landlock itself.” (VinylMePlease.com, 2020)
