Chaos Butterfly and Matt Davignon Tour December 2005

 Chaos Butterfly
The electroacoustic duo Chaos Butterfly is Jonathan Segel (violin, guitar, electronics) and Dina Emerson (voice, wineglasses, electronics, etc.). Chaos Butterfly has worked with Camper Van Beethoven (Segel) and the Meredith Monk Ensemble (Emerson), in addition to working with operas, orchestras, and the Cirque du Soleil. Their music encompasses song, soundtrack, storytelling, and mayhem, all created and performed in real time. The instrumentation is a seamless combination of electronic and acoustic sources, including violin, voice, laptop computers, guitar, wine glasses, and various toy samplers.

Matt Davignon  is an experimental musician living in Oakland, California. Since 1993, he has developed his own unique style of music, which focuses largely on textures, arrhythmic patterns and musical imperfections. Since 2004, he has been working almost exclusively with a drum machine, run through a series of effects and samplers. Drawing from what he's learned in his previous work in sound collage, field recordings, found objects and prepared instruments, he creates an organic array of drones, gurgles and frantic passages.
