Thomas Ankersmit (1979, Leiden, Netherlands) is a musician and installation
artist based in Berlin and Amsterdam. His main instruments are the Serge
analogue modular synthesizer, computer and alto saxophone. He frequently
works together with New York minimalist Phill Niblock and electroacoustic
artists Valerio Tricoli and Kevin Drumm. "Ankersmit constructs a musical
world that feels alive and capable of going anywhere, and yet also manages
to give the music a strong sense of structured purpose, a degree of
compositional control unusual in this area of live performance. It is the
fine balance between the sense of chaos that threatens to pull everything
apart and the controlled formation of the music into clearly defined
sections of differing intensities that raises the work above that of so
many of Ankersmit’s contemporaries." Richard Pinnell, The Wire

Born in Vevey in 1980, Antoine Chessex is a composer and sound artist whose
works span compositions for ensembles, solo performances, sound
installations and transdisciplinary collaborations.His compositions and
performances possess a raw energy and are characterized by textural density
as well as a strong focus on the physical dimensions of sounds and spaces.
