GUNUNG SARI is an experimental performance group, formed in late 2005. Gunung Sari is Stanley Ruiz, Nick Lesley, and Michael Dotolo. As a collaborating unit, they are interested in the similarities and differences regarding the physicality of manipulated circuits and more traditional instruments such as percussion, and using these opposing means in interplay of the intentional and interference. They combine home-made electronics, analog boxes, percussions, saw, wood, metal, and toys in their performances. They also do video projections at times, and in some events utilize the computer as a tool for sound and image synthesis. myspace page
