Mark Fell Mark is a multi-disciplinary artist living and working in Sheffield. He works with new technologies, sound, image and interaction, bringing together interests in experimental electronic musics, contemporary art, philosophy and computer science. Mark has performed and exhibited extensively at major international festivals and institutions including: Sonar (Barcelona), Mutek (Montreal), Siggraph (Los Angeles), Powerhouse (Sydney), ACMI (Melbourne), ISEA (Paris), Hong Kong National Film Archive, The Barbican (London), The Corcoran (DC), Schirn Kunsthalle (Frankfurt), Volksbuhne (Berlin), Liquid Room (Tokyo) and many others. His published sound works quickly placed him at the forefront of new digital musics with critically acclaimed releases on Mille Plateaux (Frankfurt), Or (London), Line/12k (New York), Raster-Noton (Berlin) and others.
Tina Frank The works of Tina Frank cannot be reduced to a singular area: she is a »visual artist« – her name is internationally known as a synonym for experimental design as well as visualisations of music/for music. In 1995, Tina Frank started up her own business as a designer and was soon referred to as one of Austria’s shooting stars in web design. She designs packing for music. Many of her cover designs, especially those for music labels Mego (Austria) und Idea Records (USA) have been published in numerous design reference works and are considered influential. The book »Graphic Design for the 21st Century« (Charlotte & Peter Fiell, Taschen Verlag) listed her among the top 100 graphic designers worldwide.
Nicholas Kove An artist and web developer with considerable expertise, Nicholas Kove has contributed to numerous online publishers including Fällt, F0F and Takete. He also runs recons.tructed.info, an online space for the development of web inspired works. Through an imaginative use of mathematics and linguistics Kove's work primarily challenges two independent principles: the concept of post-mechanical reproduction, and the nature of the supposedly random.
Lia Lia has been working on digital art since 1995, after graduating from the High-school for Music Students in Graz, Austria. Living in Vienna since then, she splits her time between visual design, web art, video and real-time visual performances, apparently different activities that she manages to bind together trough her unique approach to creativity and production. Over the last years she has also been an invited teacher at the Fachhochschule Joanneum in Graz, the École Cantonalle d'Art de Lausanne, and the Fine Arts University in Oslo. http://www.strangethingshappen.org
