Robert Black tours the world creating unheard of music for the double bass, collaborating with artists in all disciplines. He has been the Bang on a Can All-Stars bassist since their inception. Current projects include First Fridays with Robert Black – a monthly series of streamed bass recitals, a 10-channel audio/video bass installation reflecting on the Anthropocene with sound-artists Brian House and Sue Huang, and an outdoor environmental work for 24 basses with composer Eve Beglarian.

Marcel Zaes is a researcher and an artist working in digital sound. Currently, he is Assistant Professor at SUSTech School of Design in Shenzhen. In research and creative practice, Marcel investigates sound technologies with an interdisciplinary framework to rethink the gap between what is commonly conceived of as “human” versus “mechanical.” He received his PhD in Computer Music and Multimedia from Brown University.
