Marta Zapparoli is an Italian experimental sound artist, improviser , performer, and musician. She works and lives in Berlin since 2007. Her music mainly consists in strongly narrative sonic pieces that she builds using a wide variety of recording techniques. Although it could be qualified as abstract, Zapparoli’s music reveal an accurate sense of nativity, her soundscapes, built using real-time tape manipulation and mixing, creating sounds that are considered non-musical or overheard are usually qualified as dense,
\ntense & strongly emotional.<\/p>\n

Jackie \u201cOblivia\u201d Stewart started performing sound in 1979 in Portland, Oregon. Mostly performing within groups until 2001, when she performed a DJ \u201cthrow down\u201d of sorts (both DJ\u2019s performed at the same time) and it ended up as a collaboration. Groups Jackie has performed in include \u201cthe improvs\u201d (1979), \u201cSpy vs. Spy\u201d (1980), \u201cBabylon 2000\u201d (1981-83), and \u201cSmegma\u201d (1982-present). Though Stewart experimented on guitar and very much enjoys vocals, she has found her focus with turntables. Her visual art medium is assemblage or collage, so it comes naturally to Jackie to assemble sounds. She enjoys hearing how beautiful or humorous \u201cmixing\u201d can be, in the same way things come together visually when assembling her cut-up art pieces. With Smegma she says \u201cI can enjoy a freedom of expression, totally unrestricted and of my own: as in I choose to interpret what my part will sound like. It has enabled me to learn much about recording and live performance.\u201d Jackie\u2019s sounds have appeared on dozens of releases, both solo and in group formats, in addition to her work with video.<\/p>\n

Hisham Mayet is not a musician.\u00a0 He is also not an artist.\u00a0 He lives on the “other side” of 82nd Ave.\u00a0 Its all these these things that
\nhe’ll bring to an event that should inspire to free the shackles of the mental prison that seems to perpetuate the ironic cages of Portland OR.<\/p>\n
