| Time On | Project Name | Duration | Performance Description |
| 15:00 | m.o.a.i.n. | 30 minutes | I will use some free software and Ableton live to improvise a live mixing variety of drones together for a complex dynamic of drone sound. |
| 15:30 | Brick Road | 45 minutes | I will drone using pure drone and other continuous sounds with electronic and acoustic instruments. |
| 16:15 | Microenvironment | 30 minutes | "Lost to time" An evolving layer of tension that slowly builds into a satisfying release. |
| 16:45 | Wayne Defehr | 45 minutes | This piece weaves drone tones drawn from the sounds of the environment, such as my field recordings of the wind at the UA farm, and the North Saskatchewan R., along with the sounds of the weather sensors on the roof of the UA department of Geography, recorded with a JSON script and the API from a Weather Canada site. |
| 17:30 | Dinosaur Dragondrone | 45 minutes | Building and maintaining an 'organic' feedback loop. Organic being not directly feeding the source signal back to itself...but relying on acoustic resonance and standing waves within the room to carry the sound. |
| 18:15 | Jared Epp | 30 minutes | I plan to perform a new composition, that will be part structured and part improvised. It will be electronic based and may include some loops of found sound recordings. |
| 18:45 | James Parrott | 1 hour | I plan to do a mix of improvised performance, plus a mix of field recordings and previous works. |
| 19:45 | Ghost Cars | 1 hour | A longform piece made with guitar, keyboard, and samples. |
| 20:45 | Matt McKenzie | 1 hour | Two or three compositions that explore ostinatos as a means of producing drones. Various synthesis techniques will be used including granular/sample-based. |
| 21:45 | Gary James Joynes / Clinker | 1 hour | Modular Synthesizer Drone Set |
| 22:45 | Gray Hartley | 30 minutes | Subject to change in the next 2 months but mainly just improvised guitar drones visually accompanied by the animated childhood trauma classic Watership Down |
| 23:15 | K.M. Toepfer | 45 minutes | I plan to perform an improvised piece of sustained tones and shifting, reverberating drone-scapes created with feedback from home stereo equipment as the source material. |
