Kevin Kenkel is a Brooklyn-based composer and performer whose most recent album “Break All The Bones in Your Heart” was released by Soap Library in June 2024. His music comprises elegiac compositions for analog synthesizers and sampler, filled with pathos, heady atmospheres of longing and loneliness, unanswered calls, and missed connections. The exploration and exploitation of developing technologies — especially chatbots and other AI-powered systems for communication — are of paramount interest in his work and performance. Kevin additionally performs as a collaborator alongside Colin Self, Eve Essex, and Das Audit. He curates Deep Listening, a regular evening of experimental electronics at Parkside Lounge in NYC’s Lower East Side. Additionally, he plays synthesizers and electronics for the performance artist Christeene, with recent performances in Oslo, Rome, Berlin, and London.

Sean Petell: Greetings, traveler! Sean Petell is here to perform Sean's Music.
Think of the water, think of a breeze. Birds in the sky, and indeed – in trees.
A modern-day Lain, Sean's musical work reconciles the physical and digital realms in pursuit of experiences which transport audiences to peaceful places.
Breathe in. The journey ahead will be bumpy – Sean may crack wise, get serious, or get nervous. It's nothing personal if they do.
Breathe out. Sean's work has been performed at St. Ann's Warehouse, Folly Tree Arboretum, Dixon Place, and all over the world wide web.

AC Diamond: (they/them) is the nascent stage moniker of Lenapehoking/New York based-composer, artist-technologist, and media archivist Anastasia Clarke. AC programs and builds creative music technology to use in performance, fragmenting narrative material with their devices in order to spin it into ineffable new shapes and stories. Their work has been supported by the Foundation for Contemporary Art, NYFA/NYSCA, and a Van Lier Fellowship from Roulette Intermedium. They have released on Infrequent Seams and Soap Library labels.
