SAWAKO
CORRIDORS (Byron Westbrook)
LOREN DENT (Austin, TX)


About Sawako
Sawako is a sound sculptor, a timeline-based artist and a signal alchemist
in the urban life environment who understands the value of dynamics and the
power of silence. Once through the processor named Sawako, subtle fragments
in everyday life float in space vividly with a digital yet organic texture.
She is interested in the soundscape and the media scape of digital era, and
her activities are making bridge between public and private, virtual and
actual world.

Sawako released her albums from 12k (USA), and/OAR(USA) and Anticipate
(USA). She had collaborated with Taylor Deupree, asuna, HYPO, RF, Toshimaru
Nakamura, Taku Sugimoto, Andrew Deutsch, Jacob Kirkegaard, Kenneth
Kirschner, Radiosonde, among others. Her unique sonic world has been called
"post romantic sound" by Boston's Weekly Dig. She has performed
internationally as an audio and/or visual artist in MUTEK (Canada): Tonic,
Diapason, Monkey Town, Issue Project Room, Starbucks Salon, BAP Festival
(NYC); Corcoran Gallery (Washington DC); Glade Festival, Resonance FM, ICA
(UK); Batofar (Paris); m12(Berlin); Offsite, Super Delux, Bullets, Apple
Store (Japan). In 2006, she was awarded a Jerome Foundation grant to create
a commissioned work for Roulette. Her work has been featured in The Wire
(UK), Blow Up (Italy), Improvised Music from Japan (Japan), NY Art (US), e/i
magazine (US), DEBUG (Germany), Go MAG (Spain), GAFFA (Denmark) among
others.

About Loren Dent
Loren Dent is an Austin-based aural architect, musician, and producer. His
solo efforts incorporate humming static and chasmal feedback meticulously
assembled into a warm, " joyous drone." Loren composes his work with the use
of sampling, processed guitar, field recordings and live string arrangements
to build dense layers of sound that test the border between acoustic and
digital. Though Loren's work is often compared to the likes of Fennesz and
William Basinski, his most recent release, "Empires and Milk," gained
international praise for its original approach to the ambient genre. Loren
has performed with a range of notable artists, including Brian McBride of
Stars of the Lid and members of the New Music Coop. He is currently
finalizing his 2008 release, "Anthropology."
