The Noiseborder Ensemble was founded in 2008 by a group of professional musicians and artists interested in the intersection of sound, image and technology. Noiseborder Ensemble performances draw on diverse musical traditions including chamber music, experimental music, popular musics, multimedia performance, electronica and improvisation. Current ensemble members include Brent Lee (saxophones, keyboards, electronics), Chris McNamara (electronics), Nick Papador (percussion, keyboards), Trevor Pittman (clarinets), and Sigi Torinus (visuals).

Coming events include:
