C.W. Vrtacek (born Charles O'Meara; March 13, 1953) is a multi-instrumentalist and composer. He is a member of Forever Einstein and works with Biota.

Vrtacek has claimed to be influenced by anything from rock, folk, jazz, blues, ska, punk, avant garde, classical, to Irish music. He also cites unorthodox things such as church hymns, cartoon music, and the sounds made by pinball machines as being inspirational. His solo music draws equally from the dissonances of and Varese as well as the melodies of French impressionists such as Erik Satie and Maurice Ravel, and also uses tape loops.
