As an end-of-year gift, we present A-Gen, a copyleft tool developed by Ex-All that is free to use and exploit.
A-Gen is a generator of random shapes, symbols and patterns. We wanted to create a tool that would allow us to generate shapes in a semi-controlled way but with the curiosity that randomness generates.

If you have any questions or need instructions on how to use it, please do not hesitate to contact us. We would love to see and share the results!

EXđź„Ż25-26
The final line-up for our upcoming event features artists whose works harness the phantasmagorias, mystifications and servitudes of modern society to erode it from within, stripping it of the facade of perfect normality—ostensibly governed by the laws of flawless scientific and technological rationality—which conceals its mythological nature, inhabited by the apotropaic rituals of economic exchange.
Hailing from New York City, Margaret Chardiet will oil the event with one of the intensely provocative performances transmitted by her lifelong, programmatic industrial noise project Pharmakon. Following the spawn of its fifth transformation after a five-year hiatus, she will also present new material of this maggot mass that explores the human condition and purges the embodiments of real abstraction.
Congo-born oracle Nkisi will exhibit a specimen of Black Industrial/Noise in the form of a 3-hour DJ set aligned with the ongoing homonymous project by the Black Industrial Research Group, which “reclaims a postcolonial lineage of techno and noise within a loosely defined concept of Black Industrialism”. Tracing its roots from the ethnomusicological wax cylinders recorded in Africa in the early 20th century—whose overlooked anomalies can be seen as a form of proto-noise avant la lettre—to the Black British urban experience, Melika Ngombe Kolongo’s sorcery invokes the experimental and aberrant uses of teknology, inherent to the radical forms of so-called popular music, to expose its false official neutrality.
Tube Tentacles is “the closest thing to what you fear most”. Owner of a unique setup comprising valve synthesizers and other industrial rarities, Enrique Garoz’s output spans a range of projects including splits with legendary Japanoise artists and recent releases on Deathbed Tapes. To try out an exercise in defamiliarisation, he will perform at an unusual time and show his elusive vision, the product of an atmospheric and penetrating conception of noise that brings it closer to the most abstract non-human entities of Lovecraftian cosmic horror, in line with CCRU’s representations of Capital.
Last few days to get an early bird ticket.

(I): Romance Relic - Hundred Petals Of Suffocation (EN40, 2025)
Expanding on minute moments of daily life, Romance Relic’s delicate layering of field recordings, melancholic clarinet passages and vlog samples is interspersed with juxtaposing bursts of SFX across the EP’s 6 tracks. Capturing beauty in the mundane, “Hundred Petals of Suffocation” seeks to emphasise the allure of imperfection, gesturing toward a corporeality of the sonic palette.
(I): VVAA - Diving Headfirst Into The Sun (EN37, 2024)
A communal release comprising 14 pieces of modern electronic music, “Diving Headfirst Into The Sun” marks yet another entry in an ever-growing series of Eastern Nurseries compilations, bringing together new and familiar faces to the label’s roster.
Both releases can be purchased through Eastern Nurseries Bandcamp Page.
Poster design for the presentation of @archivoorsini , one year after its official launch.
We drew direct inspiration from the Orsini bomb itself to develop the graphic language of the proposal, and from the procedural and modular structure of Kombat, the typeface developed for the archive.

This Saturday marks one year since Drakior, the two-day event co-curated by @drakisbarcelona and @interi.oor — and also the first (official) project we created together.
We had the honor of designing all the visual assets, including an 8.5 Ă— 5.5 cm commemorative business card made especially for the occasion.
A heartfelt thank-you to @pablo.de.la.fuente and @fontsfromfolch for the typography as always 🫂, and to every artist who participated, as well as all the friends who joined us for a truly special weekend.
Special mention should be made of both @elpumarejo and @meteoro.bcn , two extremely important places which are currently facing difficult situations 🤍

Poster Design for the event organized by Madrid based promoters @dialektik_ , which took place last Saturday.
“In this late season opening, we brought together a bunch of artists who, each in their own way, explore aesthetic categories that allude to fracture, malaise, trauma, oblivion, prohibition, darkness, queerness; that, operating as destabilising elements of systems, like parasites, ooze the unnameable, the undead, the unsound, the unheard, the neglected, the disturbing, the difference.”
