Madeleine Aguilar is an artist and musician based in Chicago. Using the archive as form, she acknowledges the passing of time by cataloging lived spaces, collected objects, familial histories, personal relationships, natural phenomena, mundane routines, and ephemeral moments.

Margaret (Maggie) Cleary is a 2nd year sculpture graduate student at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her practice explores memory, intuition, and mediumship through object/costume making, set building, and sound/vocal performance. Her current questions are: Is memory a space between time? Can I make a field of dreams? And if I build it, will they actually come?

Donny Mahlmeister is an Oak Park based musician and designer with a focus on improvised music using modular synthesizers, guitar, lap steel and other electronic processing. His recent solo work encompasses elements of minimalist soundscapes intersected with abstract guestural movements. In addition to his solo work he currently collaborates with Jamie Levinson as Levinson/Mahlmeister. Prior to moving to Oak Park, Donny had been a long-standing member of the Chicago and Midwest rock and improvised scenes, working with A Tundra, Judson Claiborne, Early Day Miners, Collections of Colonies of Bees, Toby Summerfield, Ryan Packard, Jamie Branch, Catherine Young and Bill McKay.

Zander Raymond is an interdisciplinary artist and musician working in Chicago, IL. In his visual work, he improvises with found materials, tools, and images to make drawings, prints, and sculptures that question the idea of productivity in a studio environment and serve as an autobiographical record of experience. His music is similarly rooted in improvisation, utilizing modular synthesizers and open-source sound computers to sample, warp, and build sonic images that embrace non-linear approaches to composition. Past Projects have been hosted by Okay Gallery (Chicago, IL), Gummies Gallery (Chicago, IL), Mayfield (Forest Park, IL) among others. He holds a BFA in studio from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago
