Projective Module is currently composed of three artists: Juan Carlos Mendizabal, Etanna Zak, and Lydia Harari.

Juan Carlos Mendizabal is a composer and electronic musician. His most recent work is dedicated to creating music that will affect the listeners in subtle but profound ways. His work stems from the philosophy that music operates at a pre-linguistic level. The parts of the brain which listen to notes and rhythms are not intrinsically connected to or dependent on language, which makes these areas of the brain more innocent, more open to the greatest questions that we can ask. These unguarded places within the mind are more ready and willing to embark on journeys with no return.

Etanna Zak is an explorer of ritual activity and noise. She sees creative work as an act of defiance against the culture of the walking dead. Etanna was deeply influenced by watching "The Yellow Submarine" as a youngster. The effects of prolonged exposure to this animated work of art on her aberrant consciousness are still surfacing in her creative work today. She also listened to a Nine Inch Nails tape over and over again in her car despite her fathers warnings that it was devil music.

Lydia Harari is a blend of elements: part drone, part color, part salt. The doors of music have remained open, guiding her to pulsing beats, elongated tones, and experimental noises. She believes that music can indeed alter us, and wishes to forever be on the threshold of melodic mutation and manipulation.
