Martin Wheeler
www.vector-lovers.com
Martin Wheeler is a games-designer, electronic musician and one of the original 'computer geeks' –
publishing his first game in 1984 at the age of fourteen. At sixteen he began working as a designer for Virgin Games and went on to develop over twenty five games on systems including PC, SNES and Nintendo Game Boy. In 2003 he started a new career in electronic music, releasing his first single as Vector Lovers and signing to seminal Glasgow label, Soma Records later the same year. He has since recorded three albums and has performed live at venues and festivals across Europe including Fabric (London), Arena Berlin, The Loft (Barcelona) and Syncfest (Athens). As a producer and remixer, he has worked with artists including Ladytron, Slam, Husky Rescue, Tim Wright, Alex Smoke, and My Robot Friend, and recently contributed production duties to Tracey Thorn's album Out of the Woods, released in March 2007. His latest project is a software synthesizer - the DR1 Dr. Drone (www.drdrone.com). Martin spends most of his time recording at home in Berlin, where he lives with his wife and two children above a vintage radio shop in Kreuzberg.

Slavko Glamocanin

He began in computer 'demoscene', where he was mostly active in making music. This continued with organization of demo parties, mostly drum and bass parties. At that time he coproduced a lot of CDs (organization/press/promotion) under the publishing house Monkibo, among which also the first slovenian breakbeat compilation 'Monkorama' which contained his creations as well. He continued with programming and exploring the media and for that purpose he created a programming platform 'napava' and collaborated with Neven Korda in different projects such as video source/effect manipulator. Besides that, he occasionally Vjjed at parties. After one-way video/effect he proceeded with interactive projects, starting with Play VJ that enabled manipulation of video with the movement of hands through the space above which there was a camera. Afterward followed the seminar task at the faculty - virtual skiing which was hosted in Hevreka and presented at the IEEE conference. It contained 3d ski run, made by the OpenGL technology through which you were able to ski with moving of the body from left, right or lower for the speed (camera followed the movements). The next idea was the ping pong game, transmitted to another medium: v-pong. This game was projected on the floor and the players could play by interfering with projection, their movements were interpreted by a camera above them. It turned out to be very popular at night urban situations.
