By design, his objects and public performance situations often produce unpredictable results – occasionally humorous, often sonorous, and always highly interpretable.

Troy Briggs works with technology and sound and everyday objects to create subtle interventions in public and private space. These moments, ranging from audio jacks that connect the listener to far-away white noise and single, bare light bulbs that tap out morse code messages sent from across the world, speak to delicacy of human connection though the simplest of means.Briggs has exhibited widely in Chicago and Portland, Oregon, including Shane Campbell, Chicago; Rontoms, Portland, OR; A+D Gallery, Chicago; and 6018 North, Chicago, IL. He teaches in Contemporary Practices at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and sculpture, sound and new media at Cathege College. 

Michael Milano develops drawing and sound work through adapting systems of constraint as they are presented by the grid. Specifically drawing on the weaving draft as device to compose audio work, Milano explores the limits of the binary to produce conceptual “weavings.” Milano received a MFA from the Fiber and Material Studies department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and a BA in Humanities from Shimer College. He has shown at Roots & Culture, threewalls, Peregrine Program, Adds Donna, and the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art. He recently co-curated the exhibition duckrabbit with Jeff M. Ward at Adds Donna.

David Moré is a sound artist, experimental musician and sculptor. His current projects include listening to weak electromagnetic waves from (maybe) Jupiter using a home built radio telescope. In the past he has collaborated with an elephant-nose fish named Alex Halsted on the creation on biomusic.
