For Week 5, it’s Vai’s AmbiDream, an ambient generative Max for Live instrument that started as an assignment for the Non-Linear Structures class during my second semester at

The instrument plays overtones rather than the notes themselves, using basic additive synthesis built on the keys played. There are a few fx and automation dials, and a filter drifting slowly over the top. It has two engines, drone and ambient, and a crossfade option.

Planning to add a lot more automations to make it less predictable and more its own thing. It’s still a work in progress and as always nowhere near where I want it to be, but thought I’d share it anyway.

Week 3! Sharing the installation ‘The Organism’ we presented at the CCCC Centre del Carme Cultura Contemporània in April this year for INOCON, the Berklee Valencia MPTI Dept’s annual festival.

The idea was one shared instrument that anyone could play, no musical background needed. Four interfaces spread across the room, a game with a PS5 controller, a capacitive touch cube, a motion tracked mirror, and a hand tracked conductor for strings. Everything fed MIDI into one Ableton session, so whatever anyone did anywhere in the room became part of the same evolving piece.

Made with the most talented crew and Aatrey Bhatt 🌱

I built the visual heart of it, a Max/MSP patch reading the audio and MIDI from that session and responding with evolving geometric patterns in real time at the centre of the room, visualising the music being played.

Hundreds of people came through over the day, people who had never touched an instrument and all of them got to become a part of the larger Organism!

Thanks to Marta Verde and Pablo Munguía for this wonderful opportunity ❤️❤️

For week 2, I want to share a small snippet from my first-ever live set, which I got to play in December ’25 at for the MPTI (Music Production Technology and Innovation) Showcase on the last day of our Fall Semester at .

I played as ‘Vai?’ because the sound was very different from my usual sound as SourFunk, but very close to the young, curious me who initially just wanted to experiment and play around with sound and art. I ended up not sharing it because it was an impromptu set, and I was still exploring these sides of me for the first time outside my personal space and was not sure if it was ready to be out there, but nothing is ever going to be prefect enough to be out there right, so here you go :)

Can you guess, who I sampled? Also thinking about uploading the whole set this weekend, not sure, still deciding, have to get past few levels of security and insecurity to get there. 👀🚨🔐

Phrens! 🪷 Hope you’ve all been taking care of yourselves, been a few weeks since I got done with my masters at , something my younger self would’ve had a hard time believing, and would be so proud of.

Can’t really wait to share all that I have been upto over the past year, thought i will start with something i made late last night. Will put something out from the vault every week starting today. And remember mein janta hun ki paper leak ek mamoli vishe nahi he!
