gal*in_dog AKA Guillermo Galindo (Bay Area)
Post-Mexican composer Guillermo Galindo's artistic
work spans a wide spectrum of artistic expression
including symphonic composition, musical computer
interaction, electroacoustic music, opera, film music,
instrument building, multimedia installation, and
soundscape design. gal*in_dog's most recent work has
focused on translating contemporary syncretic and
hybrid symbolism into sonic rituals that wed
contradictory concepts such as primal instincts,
animism, and mythology with science and technology.

Quiet American
Sound artist Aaron Ximm works with field recordings
and oscillators. Since 1998, his Quiet American
project has focused on constructing new soundscapes
from the recordings he collects during travel. His
work emphasizes the fragile, the subtle, the intimate,
and the lovely.
