Headboggle

Come watch him pull a habit out of a rat! Headboggle is the manifestation of Derek Gedalecia's acoustic/electronic performance-art research utilizing his very own kitchen sink which at any moment might yield up Moog, Harmonica, Banjo, Harpsichord, Irish Harp, EMS Synthi, Violin, Drums, Clavinet, Serge Modular, field recordings, or your very own squirming brain. Find out at last what it's been trying to tell you all these years.

Matt Robidoux

Not all cult leaders want to arm, molest, starve, bore and poison you. Some are in it for the fun bedsheet fashions and baffling powerpoint slideshows, only too happy to see you head safely home after a bit of good clean metallurgic sonification using ancient foodstuffs. Shri Robideaux is such a one. Even so, don't lock big round eyes with him for too long lest the ecstatic spirit of the shrimpdance seize you. His collaborations with neurodiverse artists reach audiences of every smeary stripe and since he knows no bounds the materials he transforms inside the Peacock Lounge will surely include your own.

Demonpattern

The eye's surface only ever dazzles, its tracers and floaters proving the brain a serial hallucination. Some say it's no one brain, but disembodied mind that secretes sound just as it's Time that expresses Space which would mean none of us navigates alone. Find the fissure that leads you along the spidering trails that Jules Lc (Shatter Pattern) blazes across our fragile shell while Alexandra Buschman-Román (Demonsleeper) lays down deathrattle lullabys for this inescapable dreamscape belonging not to one but to all. May your ear at last crack open your eye, for the demon is legion.

Wobbly

How Jon Leidecker survives his days and whole decades of immolation-by-mass-media is a divine mystery in itself. He's a glacier, carving from the screenblue blaze a dithyrambic chaos that could only be discernible from frozen lotus position. His Radio MACBA study of collage music, Over the Edge radio live collaborations, his work with Negativland and solo work as Wobbly comprise an opus of monumental scale. As he finds your ears inside the Peacock Lounge, remember that chaos never was neutral. It's order that made all a mess of us.
