October 18 Ray State presents Ray State Wave — live performances and audiovisual experiments at the intersection of analog sound, synthesis, and performative forms.
AGAVA
A live electronic music project by Levan Shanshiashvili. Together with Shota, they will perform an improvised analog set — no computers, no presets, no rehearsals.
Glitch Aria
An opera singer and a noise artist improvise together, creating unexpected sonic combinations. Resonances, glitches, harmonies, and a distorted aria pulsing through live sound.
Leo Keane
An electronic musician creating raw, physical sound with hardware instruments. His music balances precision and chaos, mechanical rhythm and human energy.
Medicinal
Corrosive and heavy electronics with narrative force. Tactile, archaic, and novel sounds merge to evoke inner imagery and raw emotion.
Ed Berens
Explores how traditional instruments and analog synthesizers can sound together. His set combines live ritual sound, industrial electronics, and Quray — a device that turns movement into sound.
Christian Gorsky
Video artist and live performer exploring the boundary between sound and image. His audio-reactive visuals turn technology into a living material, where sound and light flow as one.
Lena Bedareva
New media artist Lena will present an immersive installation: The Hollow You Filled
VLDSK
Digital artist VLDSK will be presenting audio-reactive visuals throughout the event.

The Hollow You Filled
An exploration of loss: how our wounds preserve the memory of those we loved, and how they gradually fill with light.

Workshop “The Microchip as a Score”
October 25–26 · f0rthspace · 4:20 PM
A two-day workshop on designing and soldering a synthesizer based on the 40106 chip.
Two days to understand how sound is born, build your first circuit, and turn electricity into music.
Day 1 — theory and experiments on a breadboard: components, circuits, light, body, graphite.
Day 2 — soldering and modifying MICRORACK Synth MFOS module, and making finished device that you’ll take home.
No prior experience required. All materials are provided.
Led by Polina Shmonina — media artist and synthesizer builder, curator of phatch lab.
Supported and hosted by Andrey Strokov and Leo Gomberg - founders of MICRORACK Synth.
October 25–26 · f0rthspace · 4:20 PM
60 GEL / day · 110 GEL for both days

Ray State creates a space where artists, musicians, and engineers can learn, perform, and bring their ideas to life.
On October 25, we held our first soldering session with Polina Shmonina and Andrey Strokov at @f0rthsp4ce
Together, we built Microrack-based @microrack synthesizers and explored how electricity turns into sound.
It was amazing! ⚡️
Thanks to everyone who joined us.
