Gregory Scott Reynolds believes that the activities of making and listening to sounds have the potential to aid us in achieving focused, sublime and beneficial states of mind. He finds something alchemical in the physical act of bringing objects into vibration and, after many years of playing the alto saxophone in a variety of contexts, has switched to violin, harmonium and percussion in an effort to further his experience with vibrating bodies. The last year has found him fruitfully collaborating with the dancer Mariko Endo and performing with a variety of electronic and acoustic musicians, dancers and video artists.


Richard Kamerman prefers small sounds to large sounds but that doesn't mean they are always performed as quiet sounds. He also likes accidental sounds and collecting his instruments from people's trash on the street. He has no time for cigar breaks.


Ann Adachi is a flutist, pianist and multi-media performer, working with sound, the moving image, and performance. Compositions involve through-composed music for one or more acoustic instruments, and in some pieces, interaction with video and light as sculptural and environmental element. Ann is a member of the Eidolon Ensemble which performs original compositions monthly in New York. Education includes Berklee College of Music (B.M.), and Massachusetts College of Art (course work).
