Peter Ablinger was born in Schwanenstadt, Austria in 1959. He began studying
graphic arts and was enthused by free jazz, but completed his studies in
composition with Gösta Neuwirth and Roman Haubenstock-Ramati in Graz and
Vienna. Since 1982 he has lived in Berlin, where he has initiated and
conducted numerous festivals and concerts. In 1988 he founded the Ensemble
Zwischentöne. In 1993 he was a visiting professor at the University of
Music, Graz. He has been guest conductor of ‘Klangforum Wien’, ‘United
Berlin’ and the ‘Insel Musik Ensemble’. Since 1990 Peter Ablinger has worked
as a freelance musician. Peter Ablinger is one of the few artists today who
uses noise without any kind of symbolism – not as a signifier for chaos,
energy, entropy, disorder, or uproar; not for opposing something, or being
disobedient or destructive; not for everything, for eternity, or for
what-have-you. As in all these cases of music deliberately involving noise,
noise is the case, but for Ablinger: this alone. Peter Ablinger has also
come a long way in questioning the nature of sound, time, and space (the
components usually thought central to music), and his findings have
jeopardized and made dubious conventions usually thought irrefutable. These
insights pertain to repetition and monotony, reduction and redundancy,
density and entropy. (Christian Scheib, edited by Bill Dietz)

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.

Bill Kouligas is a sound artist and designer, better known for his solo
project Family Battle Snake. He also runs the label PAN with vinyl editions
of electronic and experimental artists. His music captures a variety of
different sounds and time periods filtered through an imaginary urban
soundscape. Emerging through a noise underground, ominous like a cloak of
whispers, he now floats on a plane ebbing and flowing between electronic
tape music and gluey entropicalia. With the use of analogue synth, tape
manipulation and electronics he employs warm drones and a musique concrete
approach through structured perspectives on a journey across time. Bill has
collaborated with the likes of C Spencer Yeh, Destroy All Monsters, Sudden
Infant, John Olson (Wolf Eyes), Joseph Hammer (LAFMS), Ralf Wehowsky/RLW,
Chris Corsano, Damo Suzuki, Christian Weber, Anla Courtis, Astro, MV Carbon,
Valerio Cosi, Birds of Delay and Kouhei Matsunaga to name a few.
