Botborg (Brisbane, Australia)
Botborg is an Australian experimental audio/visual duo presenting
improvised performances of audio visual synaesthesia using their own
custom setup of 'feedback electronics' (affectionately named: the
photosonicneurokineasthograph). You 'see' sounds, and 'hear' colours -
but all these signals are actually the *same* signal, completely derived
from device feedback. Botborg performances fuse sound and light into
intensely visceral experiences which do not fit into the established
categories of cinema or music. TOTALLY LIVE MULTI-SENSORY BRUTALITY.

Neither There Nor Here
Storm Bugs (Steven Ball & Philip Sanderson)
Live for the first time in 25 years, Storm Bugs present an all-new show
of audio-visual navigational circuit bending and dis-orienteering.  All
around the roundabout, up and down Shoreditch High Street, in and out
the Foundry, where are you going and how did you get there? Eschewing
expectations, not to mention glitchy abstraction or the hedonistic
thrill of the feedback rush, Storm Bugs turn their attention to the here
and the now-ness, the there and the then-ness, collapsing distance,
time, direction and location into a question, a riddle, a conundrum.

BBBlood (London)
Normally people write.... "Tinnitus-inducing Insanity, like being
vomited on by some angry digital god. The only way to appease him is to
drill holes in your brain, record it, and play the sounds to a roomful
of very small children." I guess that would work, or you could use this:
"BBBlood is tobacco-tin red noise from the strike-a-light guvnor of east
london." Or anything that sounds cool.

Twocsinak (Bristol)
"Twocsinak is exceptionally gifted and I think gets pretty much totally
ignored. He's a British guy who sings and writes songs and edits audio
in a very intensive manner. He made a cd on the label Wrong Music that
should be getting everybody in a lather but I don't think anybody has
noticed. Check him out!" - Drew Daniel, Matmos

Edge Effect (Swindon)
Andy Preston (aka Edge Effect) attempts to blend high-art sensibilities
with Punk Rock's do-it-yourself ethic. Andy is a "synthesiser hacker",
allowing sounds to grow organically using a mixture of improvisation and
prepared structures to create evolving, dark-ambient textures that he
uses to try to evoke eldritch images of inner worlds of dreams and
hallucinations.
