MARTIN BACK (b.1978) is also based in Santa Fe. A media artist, composer, and musician, his work explores graphic score procedures, noise, random and stochastic methods, custom circuitry, and musique concrete. He will perform a new work, Harp of the Underworld, a live acousmatic work for audio samples (from a beautifully de-tuned autoharp) and computer. Click here for more information on Martin.

WILLIAM FOWLER COLLINS (b.1974) is a musician whose work explores and synthesizes both musical and extra-musical elements. Improvisation, field recordings, electric guitar, lap steel guitar, laptop computer, processed recordings, micro-cassette tape recorders, and home-made electronic devices all play roles in the creating, performing, and recording of his music. He is currently based in Albuquerque. His new album, Perdition Hill Radio, will be released this summer by Type Records (UK) as a double LP/CD. His website is here.
