Performers’ Info:
JUSTICE YELDHAM
What's been described as "a trumpet player trapped in a two dimensional universe" is in fact the unique audio work of Justice Yeldham, a maverick musician with an unhealthy obsession with sheets of broken glass. By pressing his face and lips against the glass whist employing various vocal techniques ranging from throat singing to raspberries, he turns disguarded household windows into crude musical instruments. Resulting in a wide variety of cacophonous noises that are strangely controlled and oddly musical.
wyxmm…
...doesn't mean anything. Made up from a series of random but coincidental letters. It looks like, but not entirely, a word that sounds like, but not quite like, something that can be pronounced. The sound/tunes/music/noise created are exactly the same.
wyxmm, an emergent esoteric sound artist, excels at disarming melody lines and using random sound samples to add texture to his pieces. His works can be said to be a cross between music and soundscape.
NANNY STATE NOISE
Nanny State Noise was founded in 2005 in response to Singapore’s political system. Blending techno, speedcore and samples from various political speeches with a Nitendo Game Boy, Nanny State Noise has since performed at several events and released an EP through his MySpace site.
CHER TAN aka THE GIRL ATOMIC
Cher Tan is a freelance writer, independent filmmaker and full-time punk rocker. She is a free spirit who believes very strongly in passion and the beauty of art and aspires to break barriers where no one has ever ventured before, not only with her films, but also with her writing. Cher is also an active member of the Lion City DIY collective (http://www.lioncitydiy.com) which is made up of entities like herself interested in creating a better world for everyone, starting with themselves and the people around them.
