Benjamin Jenner is an artist and practice-based researcher whose creative process is rooted in participation and dialogic exchange as a platform for the generation of collaborative forms of representation. They are particularly interested in devising techniques for allying ulterior forms of sensory perception with the embodied imagination in order to exceed empirical methods of observation and normative forms of knowledge production. 

Through sound and spatial media, Amias Hanley explores auditory-led questions that engage the scholarship of queer ecologies and transgender studies. Central to their practice is the question of how listening processes can give rise to the experience of ecological awareness and how auditory sensations produce senses of being, place, and relationality. These inquiries are often site-responsive, generating speculative encounters that aim to offer sonic propositions for engaging composite forms and conditions.

Melissa is an Australian artist. A graduate of the Schools of Fine Arts in Australia and France and of the European Post-Graduate Diploma in Art and Sound (EPAS) at the KASK in Ghent (2020), her creative research focuses on a playful and poetic investigation of everyday life and on experimentation with audiovisual installations. Using these media, she approaches the notion of bodily experience from a phenomenological angle. Her most recent projects explore the notion of 'embodied listening'; the listening, recording and broadcasting of sound as a haptic and sensory experience.
