LIVE ACTS:
Suzan Peeters - electro-acoustic
Suzan Peeters (°1999) is a Brussels-based accordionist, composer, and experimentalist. She is constantly searching for new timbres and sound textures within the accordion, pushing its acoustic spectrum to its limits by manipulating the interplay between her body and the body of her instrument.

Tzu Ni - digital no-input
Tzu Ni is a Taiwanese artist currently based in the Netherlands. She believes in the flexibility of human bodies and views the intersection of technology and humanity as a sweet spot, seeking the balance between institutional and non-institutional contexts. Her practice explores the entangled relationship between sound, gender, and space, often through multichannel sonic installations, field recordings, and text‑based narratives that emerge from subconscious memory. Working at the intersection of embodied listening and spatial poetics, she constructs environments where sound becomes a medium of intimacy, resistance, and relational knowledge.
