__Victoria/Berlin based sound installation artist and experimental music composer Jamie Drouin examines the unique palette of electrical-based noise pollution and the auditory phenomena of environments. Through improvised performances, Drouin attempts to position these concepts within new music frameworks, often working in collaboration with acoustic musicians to magnify the alien nature of his chosen palette. Using a small suitcase modular synthesizer and radio, Drouin creates intricately detailed patterns and textures which seek to expand and transform audience perceptions of common audible and inaudible noises such as power transformers, cellular networks, and electromagnetic waves. Drouin's works have been presented at venues and festival worldwide and recent collaborations include Lucio Capece, Johnny Chang, Crys Cole, Olaf Hochherz, Seiji Morimoto, Lance Austin Olsen, Mathieu Ruhlmann, and Sabine Vogel.

Lance Austin Olsen has represented Canada in a number of biennials with his large-scale painting and drawings. After a lengthy career as a visual artist, Olsen moved into sound art in 2000 and quickly established his unique style through works distributed on CD and installations at venues in the UK, Canada, and US. Olsen's working method is uniform across all of his mediums: a surface is endlessly reworked, with each subsequent piece forming a record or narrative of ongoing discovery. Through this process, or matrix, the viewer experiences an inextricable link between the activity of producing the work as well as the sense that they are seeing but one element in a life-long pursuit.

Mathieu Ruhlmann is a artist residing outside of Vancouver, British Columbia whose work seeks to broadcast small intimate sonic happenings through the use of field recordings, natural material and found objects. 
His work has been published by various labels in Europe, Japan, Australia and North America. 
Ruhlmann has also produced sound installations and held performances throughout North America.
