Opening Thursday, April 20th, at 7PM
∆ Instinct Control is a project of Ryan ⊥ Dunn primarily utilizing the unintended, soul-salvage of planned obsolescence through direct physical contact with the circuitry of tape players. Instinct Control considers instrumentality, expectations and the musician’s gesture—resisting the implied philosophies of settings, knobs, planned instruments, reveling in chance and dialogue, performing sound with an object that is fickle to changes in environment and performer.
∆ Painter/Tattooist Keeyan Haack often explores a dovetail between the textural transgressions of neofolk/industrial and the searingly emotive performances of outsider singer-songwriters like Jason Molina. His 2020 release “DREAM” as OSSEMAAN on American Dreams shows his reach with samples and lush digital orchestration, but his recent performances have seen him strip back to the evocative qualities of his voice and guitar, accompanied minimally by synthesizer.
∆ Artist Hali Palombo is both a collagist and composer, making deft use of shortwave radio snippets, old recordings, and instrumentation of her own including her voice. Her work often has a narrative quality, telling stories of her own life, notable characters in history, places, even the stories of various esoteric media used to produce sound itself.
∆ Dorothy Carlos is an experimental cellist and electronic musician working in improvised performance and multi-channel sound installation in New York City and Chicago. Her work utilizes cello and randomized effect pedals and programmed electronics to explore themes of intimacy, ephemerality, and imaginaries. She has collaborated with a number of artists and musicians across her homes of New York and Chicago, and will be bringing in a collaboration TBA.
∆ Signal Decay is a noise rock/new musics indebted experimental quartet of “Illinoisian Surrealists” that incorporates heavy and exploratory zones. scrap metal scrapes, field recordings and unnatural rhythms from Dave Nelson, free trumpet and weird electronics from Nick Yeck-Stauffer, annihilating bliss drones and no wave guitar from Howard Steeley, and vocals/clarinet from chanteuse Sarah Wright, as well as visuals from video artist LAM aka Tyler Sullivan. They are touring on the release of their new album on personal archives, CISTERN OF RECORDS.
