KIMMO POHJONEN
The exceptional music of Kimmo Pohjonen fascinates audiences and critics both in Finland and abroad. Pohjonen's music explores the new dimensions that can be electronically retrieved from the accordion and the human voice. Pohjonen was selected Musician of the Year in 2001 by the Finnish Musicians' Union, and his work Kalmuk DVD Symphony received the Teosto award in 2004.

MARITA LIULIA is a versatile artist and pioneer of multimedia who has received numerous international awards, as well as the Finland Prize in 2000. The first collaboration of Pohjonen and Liulia was the 18-hour long Manipulator that was performed in Finland and abroad in 2001.
All sounds and samples originate from accordion and voice. There are no prerecorded tapes. Liulia "paints" on Pohjonen with computer animations in real time.
