[tiny garage] experimental sound series contributes to chicago’s DIY legacy by providing a unique platform to explore the relationship between architecture and time-based practices. chicago has a rich history of activating unique spaces as exhibition venues; [tiny garage] contributes to this legacy while looking at the garage as a place for escape, invention, ambition, and creativity. Four chicago curators explore a causal link between architecture and performance art, sound art, glitch, and experimental music – embraced by the studded walls of a two car garage behind Defibrillator Gallery.

Jeff Kolar:  [jeffkolar.us] is an independent sound artist, radio producer, and curator working in Chicago, United States. He is the Founder and Artistic Director of Radius, an experimental radio broadcast platform established in 2009. His work, described as “speaker-shredding” (Half Letter Press), “wonderfully strange” (John Corbett), and “characteristically curious” (Marc Weidenbaum), activates sound in unconventional, temporary, and ephemeral ways using appropriation and remix as a critical practice. His solo and collaborative projects, installations, and public performances often investigate the mundane sonic nuances of everyday electronic devices. His work has been released on a variety of record labels including Panospria + No Type (Canada), H.A.K. Lo-Fi Record (France), free103point9 (US), Amigos Publishing (US), and has appeared in compilations by Furthernoise.org, iFAR (England), Phantom Airwaves (US), and Sonic Circuits (US). His video work was published in the DVD journal ASPECT: The Chronicle of New Media Art.
