Recently, AM Northwest on KATU had Max Jersak, Program Director at Synth Library Portland, on to talk about what we do. Members and volunteers already know that Max is the heart of the Synth Library—she’s a big part of what keeps the library running and is a natural connector and community builder. After the broadcast, we had the largest new member orientation ever! Check out the full video from the link in our bio.
Thanks, @amnorthwest !

Introducing Void’s visual artists:
• @hasmood •
Hasmood is a first-gen Iraqi American lifeform experimenting with light, code, sensors, and machine dreams. His interactive worlds blur nature and tech, humor and haunt, inviting you to poke around, feel weird, and maybe glitch a little.
• @maxmyriad •
Max Jersak is an artist, educator, sound designer, community organizer, and video synthesist. She performs live visual and sonic improvisation under the moniker @maxmyriad , primarily using hardware musical instruments and visual instruments, with a focus on modular synthesis. Her process draws inspiration from a background studying biochemistry and philosophy of mind, where simple components like molecules and neurons mutually interact or feedback to form the larger complex structures of organism and mind.

MODBANG PDX — AUGUST 29
@ THE SIX (below Midnight)
Doors: 8PM | Music: 9PM | 21+
Ticket link in bio!
This month, Modbang PDX pushes deeper into hybrid hardware territory—where circuits meet flesh and rhythm hits in real time.
Headlining the night:
BROTHER vs ROBOT, joined by a live drummer for a full-spectrum set of audiovisual intensity. Expect immersive textures, pulsing hardware grooves, and algorithmic visuals locked to the beat.
Also featuring:
V1DEOBOY — blending chiptune chaos with drum-triggered sequences, generating reactive 8-bit madness straight from the kit.
MAX MYRIAD — lush ambient structures and melodic hardware explorations.
HYDROPLANE (Oakland/SF) — hazy analog tones and submerged rhythm experiments.
Enter the signal path. Stay for the voltage.
📍 THE SIX
3341 SE Belmont St, Portland, OR
