GX Jupitter-Larsen

During the 1990s GX Jupitter-Larsen was the sound designer for the performances of Mark Pauline's Survival Research Laboratories. His best known work stems from being the founder and only constant member of the noise act The Haters. The current performance being staged by The Haters is a piece entitled "Loud Luggage / Booming Baggage" in which amplified suitcases burst, crackle, and explode with sound. Underlying much of Jupitter-Larsen's work is a self-created lexicon consisting mainly of personalized units of measurement such as the polywave, the totimorphous, and the xylowave. The Loud Luggage performance is a sonic reference to the xylowave which GX Jupitter-Larsen defines as the distance between nothing and something.
