Annastasia Freygang
buny operates the mic. there is found sound via buttons, polyrhythmics.
it’s a quest that starts in the body, works cycles.
anastasia freygang facilitates experiments with language.
with a background in site specific interventions both short and long term ( soft beach, l honneur de timur, anatums abode) her practice grew into actively proposing to orientate on acoustic and rhythmic planes ( sonic social events)
buny came about via sampler and diy spaces- tending to improvisation on the spot.
drawing on ragamash, a form of sampling where rhythms and timelines collide, buny is attuning to places and people doing stirring.

The Seer is a multimedia live performance that combines spoken word, sound, theatre and video. The project is the creation of London based artist Conny Prantera and is constructed from a series of her poems, collages and paintings that narrate the life of a prophet echoing of Homeric myth, traditional folksong and dreamlike memories.

Hannah Kemp-Welch
Hannah is a sound artist, currently focused on radio art practices. She experiments with simple designs for DIY radios, and amateur broadcasting via citizen bands. During residencies at MoKS (Estonia) and Full of Noises (UK), she developed new designs for very-low-frequency radio recievers to listen to the Earth’s electromagnetic static. She shares these through workshops and zines, to make these technologies accessible. Hannah is a member of feminist radio art group Shortwave Collective, and has produced works for Radio Art Zone (2022), Movement Radio (2022), Radiophrenia (2020-23) and Resonance FM (2020-22).

Nicola Woodham
Nicola Woodham, London based, has composed and performed experimental music since 2014 with extended vocals, free-improvisation, sound poetry and noise. She has always formed alliances with audio technology to create trickery with her voice – thwarting and testing expectations of what sort of sounds should come from her disabled, performing, female identifying body. Nicola is one of a few artists who hand-makes, technically supports and performs publicly with their own e-textiles based digital musical instruments. Her research project ‘Voice making through movement’ has been funded by WITCiH, Jerwood Bursary, Arts Council England, CuratorSpace, the Ampersand Foundation via DASH Arts, The Harris Museum and Art Gallery, Daphne Oram Trust and Acme Studios. She is a feature maker artist on the Bela Blog https://blog.bela.io/nicola-woodham-e-textile-music-practice/
In 2024 she is developing an accessible live sampler, thanks to Drake Music’s DMLab Accessible Instrument grant which supports work at the intersection of disability, technology and music. She is also mastering an album ‘Parenthesis’.

Esther Planas
Esther Planas, Barcelona 1960 lives between London and Barcelona since 1999. Esther Planas’ research focuses on self-instituting practices during hostile times and spaces. She works with her project Escuela de Calor/School of Calidity to generate a series of ongoing situationist processes where urban sites are found, inhabited, and where unexpected encounters can happen. This “situations” confront and challenge notions of alienation and displacement across the urban context as produced by the politics of the City.

Lisa McKendrick
Nnja Riot is the solo project of artist Lisa McKendrick. She has recently released a new studio album “Violet Fields” in February 2024 which is available on cassette with Cruel Nature Records. Her music is a journey into the potential of electronic beats, musical instruments recorded as samples, modular synthesis, auditory fragments, and vocals. Her live performances incorporate an amalgamation of textures, beats and melody. On stage, she likes to probe the concept of art as a ritual, employing custom-made costumes and headdresses. Her approach to making live music is to allow the music to take on a new life for each performance, while maintaining a framework to create and improvise with.
