When he was seven, Jon Mueller discovered feedback by accident—a guitar humming on the floor, strings vibrating without touch. He’s been chasing that hum ever since.
Recorded in Buffalo’s Silo City, his 2024 album Duality made the city part of the instrument. Mueller’s return to Buffalo is both practice and pilgrimage—a horizon where drum, air, and echo converge.
To listen deeply is to let boundaries slip. Time, self, object—each dissolves into vibration. All Colors Present lingers in that state, where sound erases itself as it becomes whole.
“My connection to playing drums is to use them to enter a different state of mind… that energy is something I can’t really define, but it is distinct.” -Jon Mueller

Argentinian composer María Lihuen Sirvent designs her own musical instruments — physical and electronic — and uses them as extensions of her compositional voice.
In her work, repetition is a mirror—each loop altered by memory, by breath, by light. Glare continues her exploration of sound as a time machine: not to return, but to remember.
“The act of remembering changes the way one feels about the object being remembered… nothing comes back from the past intact.” - Lihuen Sirvent
