Gregory Ellsworth Bem the First was born in the state of Illinois, the state of Maine, the state of Rhode Island, the state of Pennsylvania, and most recently the state of Washington. He has contributed to his own personal mythological numerology universe, found performance through manipulation of bedroom dust collections, and fluidly challenged the concrete-like ethos made painstaking and organic through favoritism and collectivity. You can visit Mister Bem permanently in the black hole of his mouth.
Jason Conger is artillery. He lives in a thatched hut, which is near Austria. Jason saunters. He is the shoplifter. In his free time, when he's not addicted to anglicizing geese, he is jumbled. He feels abstemiously about the hard tricycles. He supports the unicycles at FEMA. His favorite type of poetry is of the whale shark style. His least favorite type is of the tapir style. He dreams about squinting at the nimble glasses. When life is neither truthful nor beautiful, Jason - or J-bone - goes hunting in the Horse Head Nebula, an artery quartered beside the system.
Kjell Hansen invites a contemplation of the holographic principle, a notion of modern superstring theory that volume us illusory and that everything "in" the universe is an inscription upon the cosmological horizon. Text suspended in his sculpture reveals alternative readings at different angles, while letters reflect and recede, echoing out beyond the planes in which they are carved. In past works, Kjell has composed canons of octaveless microtonal counterpoints, coded a biofeedback room inside which one may chase their own heartbeat, and choreographed the silent violence of focused sunlight to gently overheat image sensors.
