Max Meetup Philadelphia is a regular meeting to share ideas and strengthen the connections of the Philadelphia community of Max users, digital artists and musicians. Each meetup will feature workshops, conversations, and open work-shares focusing on art-making, Max, and digital technologies. All experience levels are welcome to attend. Attendees are encouraged to bring their computers if they wish to patch along with the workshops.

This Meetup will feature a performance and patch-along demo by Cerulean S. Payne-Passmore, who will share a gesture-controlled laptop feedback instrument and how to build your own in Max. Cerulean is a Philly-based composer and improviser studying at the University of Pennsylvania with Tyshawn Sorey.

This event is free and open to the public.

Max Meetup Philadelphia is organized by Sam Wells, a musician, video artist, and Max Certified Trainer based in Philadelphia.

release date: March 8 (Pre-order now!)

The second album from Miller, Vidiksis, and Wells marks a deeper, more reflective phase in the trio's journey through the realm of telematic free music. While their debut album resonated with dynamic rhythms and energetic textures, this new collection shifts focus, embracing a darker contemplative ambiance that is rich in depth and nuance. Despite this change in tone, an undercurrent of tension remains, lending a compelling complexity to their soundscapes.
