Abigail Toll is a sound artist and composer working with electroacoustic composition, chamber ensembles, extended tuning systems, and multichannel installation. Her practice constructs deep-listening environments from ongoing research into psychoacoustics and resonance. Her second album Idol (Superpang, 2025), nominated for the German Critic’s Prize and her debut Matrices of Vision (Shelter Press, 2023) was presented as an ensemble commission by KW Institute of Contemporary Art at the Klosterruine.
Oliver Turvey is an artist working across sound and performance. A longtime member of the group Midlight, he also performs with Hilary Woods and Gabriel Ferrandini. His practice sits at the intersection of site- and subject-specific improvisation, utilising electronics, violin, viola, DIY instruments, and spoken word.
Seán Being is an Irish musician working across a range of modes of composition and performance. They have collaborated widely among circles in Ireland, Portugal and London, including lately as a member of Irish group Princ€ss and as instigator of the riverside event series, Car Musick. They work with site-specific solo performance through a variety of means—recently plainchant, feedback, pianos and car horns—thinking through spatial, social and historical bases of music performance. Seán has an MA from the Dutch Art Institute (2024) and currently lives in London.
Flynn McHardy is a London based musician. He works with guitar and electronics in solo and collaborative contexts. He is concerned with the investigation of listening as both method and material. His work has been released by Superpang and has featured on BBC 3’s Late Junction, NTS Radio, and Resonance Extra. He also plays in the band Hedgehog.
