___The format of 242.pilots performance :


1st half of the performance is a series of solos from Gilje, Ralske and Lysakowski.
Each pilot provides his own music, usually as part of a simultaneous audio-video
improvisation.

2nd half is a trio: the video output from each pilot is layered or combined into one
seamless whole. Music for the trio section is provided by a guest musician.
Total performance time: 1 hour 20 minutes.

This format of presentation allows the audience to absorb each pilots's distinct
style, and to compare and contrast them. Then, the component elements of the
trio mix are then more easily discernable and enjoyable.

The trio performance is accompanied by electronic music, also improvised live.
242.pilots live musical collaborators have included:
Justin Bennett (UK)
Tordis Berstrand (Denmark)
Tim Hecker (Canada)
