Victoria Shen (Evicshen) is a sound artist based in San Francisco. Shen's sound practice is concerned with the spatiality/physicality of sound and its relationship to the human body. Her personal identity—her body—is the space her work utilizes to restructure sonic meaning. The appendage-like instruments she makes exemplify Shen’s interest in the tension created by opposition: control and chaos, the unique and the mass produced, the practical and the absurd. Shen’s multimedia practice extends to include installation and sculpture.The collaborative work of Pedestrian Deposit—Shannon A. Kennedy and J. Borges—is best described as visceral and narrative; highly composed, often abstract sound textures informed by elements of experimental sound, harsh noise, musique concrète, neo-classical, dark ambient and performance art—but is not beholden to any one genre. Borges’ crude yet disciplined electronics and controlled feedback manipulation contrasts Shannon’s self-designed, physically activated sculptural instruments and extended bowing techniques, resulting in music that is both raw and refined.
Amanda Chaudhary is a composer, bandleader, electronic musician, jazz keyboardist, and visual/sound artist. She blends experimental electronic sounds with jazz, funk, dance music and other idiomatic styles into her visually captivating performances. She is also the author of the popular video channel CatSynth TV, where she discusses music, art, culture, and, of course, cats.
