Rather, it is an opportunity for the >artists to explore ideas outside the constraints of a production >schedule. >------------------------------------------------------------------------ >---------------------------------- > >Description of Host > >Modulate are an artist collective working with multi speaker sound >environments, sound and visuals, and abstract electronic music.
