Future Vessel

Host of Coppice (since 2009) and Nestor (since 2018).

Musical experimentation and postphenomenological investigations.

A continuous hollow book.

Coppice

Coppice was founded by Noé Cuéllar & Joseph Kramer in Chicago in 2009 as an artistic research into the formation, development, and becoming of a musical experiment, which has been praised as “rich and highly abstract,” “volatile,” “bewildering,” “a universe unto itself,” “music that simply exists on its own terms.” Ranging between installations, performances, and objects, Coppice works have been presented at museums, universities, and DIY spaces in the US, and published internationally on numerous artist-run labels.

Recent highlights:
Bridge to Oblique Landscape (Distance in the Unison with Crosscutting Triangles) (2024)
Draw Agreement (2023)
Stewardship to Obsolescence and Preservation: Listening to Specimen Music through Yerkes Observatory’s Refractor and Reflector Telescopes (2021)

Nestor

Since 2018 Nestor investigates concepts in visual and auditory creative processes, across an assortment of projects that range between video documentary, photo essay, site-specific intervention, objects, writing, lectures, and music. Nestor’s latest composition Bórdice (2024) has been described as “raising many questions about its nature and, as always with Cuéllar, its reality.”
