*Marta Zapparoli*
Marta Zapparoli is an Italian experimental sound artist, improviser, performer, resercher and musician. She works and lives in Berlin from 2007. Her music mainly consists in strongly narrative sonic pieces that she builds using a wide variety of recording techniques, devices and selfmade microphones. She is interested in the boundaries and relations between real sound world, vibration sound, noise pollution and inaudible sound. Although it could be qualified as abstract, Zapparoli’s music reveal an accurate sense of nativity, she building strongly narrative and sonic pieces live through improvisation with real-time tape manipulation as scratch, back and forth, cutting, mixing producing rough sounds.

This sound material is transformed and placed in other contexts, subsequently changing its original character creating sounds that are considered non-musical, overheard, imaginative. She performed at festivals across Europe, in Turkey, Norway, Sweden, as well as in the USA, playing with musicians like Matmos, LAFMS, and many others. Besides her solo work, current groups and collaborations include: (PXPRD) with Martin Kuentz, Duo with Alessandra Eramo, (TOWA) with Julie Rousse, (Raven Moore) with Kathrin Gunter, (The Elks) with B.Roisz, L.Albee, K.Fagaschinski , form 2010 she is a member of Berlin’s 24-piece Splitter Orchestra.

In 2006 she received the MOVIN-UP Award for her field recording project An Audio Portrait of Berlin.

*Mare di Dirac*
Mare di Dirac is a project founded in 2009 by two Italian experimental sound artists; Lorenzo Abattoir (aka Nascitari), who is engaged in several other noise projects (Wuornos Aileen / Psicopompo), and Luca Poseitrone, who plays ethnical instruments and analog electronics.
The concept is based on the fundamental principles of Quantum Physics applied to field recording sound. Electro-acoustic resonances of instruments and natural effects of a space, are used as a basic building blocks of a sonic structure, which is the object of their exploration and modification in an unusual process of composition.
