▋about the performers ▋● Emma Palm / No Translation (US)
No Translation is the solo project of Emma Palm, a Taiwanese-American musician and visual artist based in Los Angeles. Her music incorporates synthesizers, field recordings, guqin, and vocals to create sonic collages of meditative soundscapes that reflect on the interconnectedness of identity, environment, memory, and communication.

● Marc Merza (US)
Marc Merza is a Filipino-American artist and musician based in Los Angeles, California. His recordings are at times improvisational and spontaneous, and other times, heavily crafted, sculpted and reworked. He often composes on guitar, clarinet and Kulintang (a Filipino gong set) to speak to others, but the use of tape loops, field recordings and electronic equipment are not foreign in Marc’s music.
As a duo, Marc and Emma utilize both of their skill sets and sound art techniques to create experiences, performances and installations that further explore themes found in their solo work. Their current objective is to continue to investigate personal identity and Asian American diaspora through sonic landscapes. In 2023, the duo intend to travel together to their respective family’s countries (the Philippines and Taiwan) with the intention to gather inspiration, material and information for upcoming works.

● Paolo Gàiba Riva (pgr) (IT)
Digging into the rawer, more sincere and without compromise parts of what people call "(non)music" since 2011. Researching the clash, the dynamic and the static state of the sounds which please me. No need to show or transmit anything in particular, anyone gets his own conclusion. The aim is to wake up the listeners’ awareness and focus on the moment. A shelter to face the paradox of life.
