Chandan Narayan plays the autoharp and swaramandal. His initial approach to the instrument was guided by complete naivety. Over the years he has refined his non-idiomatic techniques in the hopes of fooling the listener (and himself) with the autoharp as source of acoustic anomalies. He performs and records with the Canadian power trio The Party (with Jeffrey Allport and Joda Clement) as well as a regular duo collaboration with Jesse Kudler. He has shared the stage and living room performing and recording alongside the likes of Kenny Roux, Tomas Korber, Jeffrey Allpost, Joda Clement, Tomascz Krakowiak, Pau Torres, Gunter Muller, Lee Hutzulak, Christine Sehnaoui, Angharad Davies, Chris Cogburn, Jonathan Sielaff, and Gust Burns among others. Chandan owns and operates the Simple Geometry label. He formerly played in the Philadelphia quintet Benito Cereno.

Jesse Kudler creates concrete music on the computer, composes low-tech multi-channel sound works, and improvises on cheap consumer devices: a no-name electric guitar, hand-held cassette recorders, radios and transmitters, various small junk, and pedals/electronics.

Chuck Sipperley (Beak Full of Rubies, Arrivistes) is an Ann Arbor-based musician who has played in improvised groups since his days as an undergrad at Michigan State University. As a student, he was a member of the student composers' group, and has since contributed music for films, dance pieces, and art installations. He performs on modular and analog synthesizers, samplers, and everyday consumer devices, such as radios and tape recorders.
