NONOTAK studio is the collaboration between the illustrator Noemi Schipfer and the architect musician Takami Nakamoto. Commissioned by the Architect Bigoni-Mortemard to create a mural in the lobby of a public housing building in Paris, NONOTAK was created in late 2011. In early 2013, they start to work on light and sound installations, creating an ethereal, immersive and dreamlike environment meant to envelope the viewer, capitalizing on Takami Nakamoto's approach of space & sound, and Noemi Schipfer's experience in kinetic visual. They presented their first audiovisual installation at the Mapping Festival in may 2013. In summer 2013, NONOTAK come up with a performance, LATE SPECULATION, where they are the creators and contents of the project. NONOTAK have been commissioned by the Mapping Festival ( GENEVA ), EM15 ELEKTRA / MUTEK ( MONTREAL ), la Nuit Blanche ( PARIS ), Roppongi Art night ( TOKYO ), Axcess Art Gallery ( NEW YORK ), Stereolux ( NANTES ), Playgrounds Festival ( TILBURG ), Mirage Festival ( LYON ), Vision'R, Insanitus Festival ( LITHUANIA ), FUZ Festival ( PARIS ), Lunchmeat Festival (PRAHA ), KIKK Festival ( BELGIUM ), Nokia by Lumia ( ISTANBUL ). Their work have been exhibited at institutions and galleries including Tokyo Grant Hyatt Hotel, l'Opéra de Lyon, Batiment d'Art Contemporain de Genève, Theater de NWE Vorst, La Fabrique, Pavillon Carré de Baudouin, Le Générateur.

Based out of San Francisco, Sarah Bly produces and performs hardware and computer based experimental electronic music under her ancestral Norwegian name BLEIE. Inspired by xenofeminism, nature, and the practice of shikantaza, her sounds range from mercurial noisescapes and meditative drones to a more cerebral and singular techno. Her work is both a personal sublimation made public, and an attempt to mutate predominant narratives. As such, there is a purposefully organic flow to her music, in which elements are allowed to bleed through the composition like watercolors.

Chelley Sherman is a creative technologist and liminal researcher who explores non-ordinary states of consciousness and perceptual illusions through immersive installations, data-driven biosimulations, and digital recreations of complex, dynamical and self organizing systems as her contemplating practice. . Her computational models give rise to emergent lifelike patterns and behaviors, forming the foundation of immersive experiences that serve as meditative psychocosmograms. These works engage viewers in an intricate dimensional expression of the vastness and fluid nature of reality through noetic perception and symbolic representation. Sherman leverages concepts like annealing, optics, fluid dynamics and agent driven behaviors to evoke the intricate, ineffable expressions of multi- layered consciousness in both the physical and metaphysical realms.

Her acclaimed VR installations have been featured at events such as the United Nations Women's Global Film Festival, SXSW, Nuit Blache and Mutek. Notably, Chelley's contributions to the development of real-time systems at Sphere Las Vegas and for Emmy Award-nominated immersive films have been highlighted in Time Magazine as pioneering advancements in technology along with her collaborations with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
