liek twi and the mu ensemble
Wind up bird chasing helicopter
hang-glide kids over noise canyon
reliving celebration songs of space ship in stereo sight

Hektor Fontanez, Anthony Lebron, and Nick Chapman

SUN HOP FAT is one of Che Chen's many alter-egos--the cantankerous, knob twirling, noise-doppelganger of the Vivian Girl.  
Equal parts electronics and hollerin',  SUN's name could have just as easily been, "Angry Red Head of Anteater."  Who knew
feedback could sound so down home?

Aram Shelton/Mark Denardo
Two fellows met that made different kinds of music, set up a show, wore
helmets and came up with something else.  Denardo takes care of sounds
using at least a gameboy, casio, & laptop.  Shelton uses acoustic
sounds as source for dsp using max/msp & sometimes completely
unprofessional guitar shredding.

Tianna Kennedy & Kevin Shea
The recursive/debugged foxy proposition principle
    The recursive/debugged foxy proposition principle is the duct tape of superintelligent extraterrestrial beings, spreading and
blowing up the elements -- it's ain't chops beautiful, elegant and ain't fuckin' hell ain't gonna be no like god damn freekin'
permanence and like shit as dissuaded damn public disorder cutters build like drug states of death, doom and destruction.


Thank you to Darlene and Jordan for help with the food.
And Happy Birthday to Jordan!


The
Music for Peace Project 2005 is a global effort to fill the world with music as a call for peace. By coordinating a vast
number of concerts worldwide between April 8-10, 2005, The Music for Peace Project will bring popular and media attention to
international peace efforts while building a global community of active, socially conscious artists. Dedicated to cultivating peace
as both a means and an end, The Music for Peace Project creates a global celebration of peace and provides a voice for the
vibrant community that believes in peaceful solutions for the future. Any musician can participate.

This year, there are 200 concerts scheduled to take place in 24 countries during the weekend of April 8-10.

Music has the power to inspire compassion and foster understanding between cultures while deepening the bonds that form
our communities. Together, all musicians participating in The Music for Peace Project are helping to create a global community
of musicians that cannot be ignored.

"Artists are messengers whose responsibility is to unite the world—a faith that will lead not to destruction, but to
transformation," —Alice Walker
