*Fa Ventilato
*Sound and mash-up artist Fa Ventilato’s freestyle approach incorporates the art of looping, real-time composing and sampling with simultaneous dj-mixing skills. By manipulating CDs with high quality samples of classical instruments and loops he creates a collage of sounds and rhythms.
His most recent mash-up is: Robert Johnson vs. Karl-Heinz Stockhausen presented by “Fuckitnosh”.
Fa Ventilato (Italian b. in Switzerland) is a New York based music artist and producer. Originally a drummer, Ventilato has evolved into a multi-task home studio music maker, creating music for international contemporary artists, film trailers for festivals, dance re-mixes, sound installations, theater music and conceptual pop albums.

*Paranoid Larry and his imaginary band
*Paranoid Larry was discovered several years ago on a rooftop here in DUMBO by a video vocation crew. Since then he has released 4 CDs including his latest “If I could say exactly on my mind”.
Vocal trio “The Roches” sings one of his songs on the newest CD – as well as other artists. He performs regularly with his imaginary band throughout the county. A highly unique show, blending music, satire, insanity, romance, push-ups and humor.

*Asakomusic *plays analog synthesizer, glockenspiel computer & little tribal instruments. The result, AsakoMusic, is dreamy and spacey, and sung in different languages.
Asako is an ambient part of different bands and project collaborations such as Tiger Fingers, Dead Radar, [a u d i b l e], doroasako, Katja Loher and Das Videoorchester. Asako’s songs are about abstract feelings towards random things - like clouds, airplane, sheep, moons, sun-shines and friends.

Katja Loher
*In her installations Katja Loher merges her ongoing exploration of language and visual form with sophisticated technology and dramatic sculptural awareness.
The New York based artist orchestrates a variety of mediums and collaborators from around the world. She seeks to deliver precise, as well as poetic metaphors on the ambivalent relationships between power, freedom and dependency.
Katja Loher projects her video works onto the surfaces of weather balloons and transforms them into /Video-Planets/. In /Video-Tellurium /(2008 work-in-progress) Katja Loher moves the viewer temporarily away from earth into the darkness of space and shows our planet from an exterior perspective.
