St Vito - (Sensor Technology Visual Interactive Touch Orchestra) is a project fusing contemporary dance and music with unique wearable technology.
Fresh from their debut performance during Berlin Fashion Week for the Telekom Fashion Fusion program in Berlin. St Vito are now on tour in Australia. There performances focus on the interplay between analog, soft bodies and the digital world, where three dancers are buffeted by currents of technological power; trapped by its omnipresent and dehumanising influence. Light patterns ripple through the dancers' bodies, responding to their movements and interactions. http://www.stvito.com/

Donna Hewitt - is a vocalist, electronic music composer and instrument designer. Donna's research has been primarily exploring mediatized performance environments and new ways of interfacing the voice with electronic media. She is the inventor of the eMic, a sensor enhanced microphone stand for electronic music performance and more recently has been creating wearable electronics for controlling both sound and lighting in performance. Her work has attracted funding from the Australia Council for the Arts, most recently with all female collective Lady Electronica. Donna has held academic positions at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and Queensland University of Technology and is currently the Convenor of Music at the University of New England.

City & Sea - are re an electronic hybrid three piece from Wollongong. Inspired by the artists; Flume, Safia, RUFUS, Disclosure and many others they focus on new modes of performance utilising electronic instrumentation. City & Sea aim to create a hybrid of live vocals and drums summed together with future bass electronic themes.
