কাল্পনিক রেখা (Kalponik Rekha) is a sound and performance art platform created to cultivate community and collaborative engagement between South Asian artists and across (cultural) borders. Primarily driven by fragments of displacement and as a phenomenological resistance to objectified romanticism; the term Kalponik Rekha translates to an imaginary terrain, referring as a metaphor for loose geographical definitions and contemporary contexts of south asian subculture.

Siddharta Talukdar (Bangladesh)
Sidhartta Talukdar is a Chakma (from Bangladesh) electroacoustic composer and improviser from Treaty 4, Turtle Island. He collects synthesizers, stringed instruments and radios (among other things) to forge sound sculptures in real time with the aid of biofeedback and controlled randomization, resulting in a soundtrack for post-capitalist dreams.

Neo Geodesia (Cambodia)
Neo Geodesia is the recording name of Saphy Vong (born 1982), an experimental electronic music producer and composer of Cambodian heritage, born to Cambodian parents, raised in Nancy, France, and currently based in Brighton, UK. His work is known for intricate electronic compositions characterised by a strong emphasis on melody, hypnotic pacing, conceptually stylised structures, and an extreme use of audio processing techniques. Early incarnations of Neo Geodesia trace back to the mid-2000s, when he performed under the moniker Lafidki, a project that combined stylistic elements of electronica and experimental music with the structural intensity and abrasiveness of noise. He has released work on Orange Milk Records before going on to found Chinabot, a collective dedicated to Asian artists. In 2021, he released the LP 2562 Neon Flames on Chinabot, a project that focused heavily on experimental funeral compositions.
