Acrartep is the moniker of artist Eugenio Petrarca, known for his solo performances and collaborationsin the realm of electronic music. Acrartep is also the half and co-founders of the ambient project Ab uno.
His compositions are characterized by spontaneous arrangements of modular synthesizer patches,creatively combining sonic elements in an intuitive way. Acrartep's artistic exploration primarily focuseson genres such as Ambient, Drone, and Minimalism, where each sound acquires its unique sonic identitythrough a blend of tones and overtones.
Acrartep's creations often feature long and sustained drones, slow movements, rhythmic shifts, andrepetitions, transporting the listener on an immersive and meditative sonic journey. His work is alsooften an investigation into the essence of sound with a ritualistic approach and the art of craftingsoundscapes that captivate the listener's imagination.
Acrartep continues to explore the possibilities of electronic music through a unique and experimentalapproach, offering audiences sound experiences that challenge conventions and invite contemplation.
Kasho Chualan is a Kurdish-Canadian pianist, composer and
transdisciplinary artist currently based in Vienna. She is currently occupied with experimenting with extended techniques, piano preparations, toys and tape. She is always on the
constant search for new sounds that she can create through alternative ways, by manipulating the resonant bodies of instruments and challenging the social constructs of how an instrument should be played or perceived. She explores a variety of concepts, such as the necessity to fight for freedom and to break boundaries, embracing the sensibility in discovering details in many
spectrums whether it is in the observation and nuances of human behaviour, sound, imagination, tactility, bodily movement, pushing self boundaries, confrontation and transparency through expression.
