Archaic Reckoner with a wailing theremin (II) #glitch #tidalcycles #livecoding #theremin #experimentalmusic

From a performance at @cutelab_nyc last summer. Digital experiences moshed and pixel-sorted, and drum lines swung using perlin noise on this WIP horror soundtrack about doomscrolling during the plague. #livecoding #tidalcycles #supercollider #touchdesigner

Another excerpt from "Afraid To Try" @synap.home.lab Bangkok 2024

I'm playing a show this Sunday (May 11) at @cutelab_nyc with @kastakila_ , @elekhlekha , and @nuuuuuuuuuuu__ . I've been writing new music in fits and starts, and tweaking my tools to serve the songs better. I will play some of this at the show. Come by! DM me or the venue for the address.

Last year Reckoner turned 10. I also got to tour in Asia. Dream Deficit Zone #20 reflects on 2024, and talks about what lies ahead in this year.

Jupiter Disco is thrilled to be hosting this weeknight double-header dripping with talent. Reckoner [@reckonermusic ] and Avneesh Sarwate [@avneeshsarwate ] open the night with a live synth and computer-generated visual performance. Reckoner delivers a unique ethereal live synth sound with influences from the rock, classical, and ambient spheres. Sarwate is a pioneer in interactive art and live-coded algorithmic visuals. Baalti [@baalti.mp3 ], Dynoman [@dynomanmusic ], and Lapgan [@lapganlapgan ] then take us to close. SF-based Baalti has been a on tear with their take on South Asian-influenced dancefloor vibes, coming off performances with MELT Berlin, Daytimers UK, Avant Gardener, and many more. The multifaceted Lapgan is also in town to give us a peek into the crate-digging side of their brain, and Brooklyn-based Dynoman takes a break from their wildly popular Tarka and Rare Frequency Transmissions series to offer nomadic sounds by way of Karachi. Set Times: 8:30pm - 9:30pm Reckoner, Avneesh Sarwate 9:30pm - 2:00am Baalti, Lapgan, Dynoman RSVP for free now by clicking the link in our bio. #JupiterDisco #Reckoner #AvneeshSarwate #Baalti #Dynoman #Lapgan #CAP

Jet lagged and hazy, still. The last two weeks were nerve-wracking, fast, and joyous all at once. I was pleasantly surprised each time by how many people came out to see us. Thank you Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Bangkok for making us feel at home. Thank you @kastakila_ and @emptyflash_ for accompanying me into bizarre situations. I have returned with many more friends than when I left.
