Wong Chung-fai
Also known as Sin:Ned, an idiosyncratic improviser, experimentalist, live-visualist, mirco-curator and free-lance writer from Hong Kong. Also co-founder of the experimental imprint Re-Records, member of the electro-acoustic duo No One Pulse, and Advisor of soundpocket.
Being a veteran writer of the legendary Hong Kong alternative music magazine MCB (Music Colony B-Weekly), his writings had influenced a wide spectrum of experimental musicians and listeners. While not writing as a pseudo-music critic elaborating his esoteric worldview, in the same idiosyncratic fashion, he spends much of his time hacking and sculpting sonic materials with his laptop and various non-standard electronic gears. With his on-going experimentation embracing improvisation, noise, errors, chaos and randomness, he has been re-visioning an unorthodox sound-making process expressed in extreme dichotomies, and driven by intuition and direct experience.
He has offered performance and creative work for concert, sound installation, workshop, audio-visual and theatrical performance. He had taken part and performed in various art events such as HK Sound and Vision Festival (2003), Get It Louder (2007), Hong Kong & Shenzhen Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture (2007, 2009), Architecture is Art Festival (2009), Notch Festival 2009 Guangzhou Station (2009).

Inter-Session
Three musicians from different backgrounds meet in the intersection between acoustic, electro-acoustic and electronic sound qualities. Feedbacks, field recordings and double bass create the raw material, which in pure or processed form is then transformed into a new soundscape. It is a soundscape of dynamic abstraction that invites the audience to enter a state of active listening. Given the distinct background of the three musicians, the musical language promises heterogeneity and multi-dimensionality: noise, drone, lower case electronica, energy, play, research and contemporary composition.

Claudio Rocchetti _ Italy Fieldrecordings, Feedbacks
Klaus Janek _ Italy Double bass, Laptop
