    Symbiotic

    The Symbiotic family of works contains almost all touch-based works. The player completes a circuit; the electricity, the sound travels through you and comes through the other side being altered by your cells. These are incredible works to play with incredibly powerful sound. Everything here is create by Ben and ...

    Quadrum

    The quadrum family by Arius Blaze, at its root,  utilizes an analog circuit with a huge warm sound. These are very analog and warm pieces - occasionally loud and insane, and oftentimes very sweet tonally. Some of the first standalone synth-art works created by Arius were quadrums. After years, he brought ...

    Time

    The Time family consists of devices that are solely based on a delay effect/looping/echo. Aside from oftentimes being ancient looking devices, we attempt to make delays that are not at all typical sonically. We love dub so we tend to use the idea as the basis for the ...

  • Transient Moon

    Transient Moon

    The "Transient" family was originally an expansion on the moon family but the basis was so similar. Each of these devices has 2 sections - internal synth, and effects with many controls for each. The ability to cross synthesize opens an entire new realm of sound - where the internal synth triggers ...

    The telecom family is based on a low-tech lo-fi vocoder and pitch shifting circuit similar to those found in toy voice changing megaphones. The circuitry however, is higher quality with a much wider range of effects and more controls. Each has the ability to alter any incoming audio source - mic ...
