Jonathan Badger is a guitarist, composer and video artist based in Baltimore.  He studied composition with Stephen Jaffe, Scott Lindroth and John Harbison at Duke University.  He also studied in Guitar Craft, a tradition founded and guided by Robert Fripp. JB's work ranges from postrock sludge to neobaroque chamber music.  In live performance his compositions and improvisations show themselves in a modular electronic format, while still maintaining the character of solo guitar.  Often his performances include the use of jitterful video projection.  He is also one half of the electropop duo Lake Mallory, and he produces and performs in the electro-acoustic project Antler.  His most recent performance outfit is All the Clouds Turn to Words with guitarist Adrian Bond.  JB teaches at St. John's College in Annapolis, Maryland.
