RAFAEL ANTON IRISARRI Rafael Anton Irisarri is an Ibero-American composer, producer, and mastering engineer whose work moves through the overlapping territories of ambient, experimental, and modern classical music. Born in Puerto Rico and now based between Spain and rural New York, he first emerged in Seattle’s 2000s scene under the moniker The Sight Below, where blurred guitar textures and submerged rhythms met the skeletal pulse of minimal techno. His sound has since expanded into widescreen landscapes attuned to memory, geography, and the emotional weight of place. His catalog spans early releases on Ghostly International to recent work on Black Knoll Editions, forming a sustained body of work that functions as an archive of atmospheres and afterimages. RUHAIL QAISAR Ruhail Qaisar is an artist from Leh, Ladakh. His current practice revolves around examining threads of local memory, mythos, and poetics through sound art, compositions, and found sculptures. Involved within various cross-genre projects since 2015, his early noise shows all over India are recalled as sonic palate-cleansers, he debuted with his concept album Fatima (2023) dubbed by The Quietus as “haunting”, released on Danse Noire featuring Dis Fig and Elvin Brandhi, with a 48-page photo book publication. In 2024 his residency in Graz, Styria was spent, preparing a 36 channel third order ambisonic composition, Namkhay Rtsima / The Spine of the Sky, for the Musikprotokoll Festival for ORF (Österreichischer Rundfunk) and the Steirischer Herbst’ 24 at the Dom im Berg. ROJIN SHARAFI Rojin Sharafi is a Tehran-born, Vienna-based sound artist, composer, and performer working across electroacoustic music, noise, and experimental electronics.
