Noveller is the solo project of Brooklyn-based guitarist and filmmaker Sarah Lipstate.
Handling the electric guitar as her muse, Lipstate summons a sonic palette so rich as to challenge the listener to conceive of how it’s housed in a single instrument manipulated by a solitary performer.

Once high fidelity sound cards became available for the PC, Nicholas started to explore the application of his "C" programming skills to sound. Nicholas would open a digital file, then write numbers into it based on the evolving science of sound synthesis. A range of people helped to further this work into musical projects, including drummer Mario Cardenas, sax player Charley Krachy, synthesist Neil Alexander and composer James Umland.
