I'm Andre from Meulaboh, Aceh, Indonesia. I was a backend engineer, at some point I wanted to do music again and I no longer have any instrument with me, now I code it instead.
Performance
Arbor is an artist and researcher creating experimental and experiential interfaces and prototypes with an interest in found physical and digital materials. He develops makeshift systems to transform spaces through sound and light. His works blur the boundaries between performance, installation, and artifact across diverse environments and contexts, and often yield new tools that serve as both means and forms of expression.
Tidal Cycles
Betrand Angelius Zai is a Yogyakarta-based experimental composer and musician specializing in computer music. Formally educated in the Music Arts Study Program at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Yogyakarta, he is known for actively exploring new boundaries of audio creation through live music coding practices using the TidalCycles programming language. In each of his performances, Betrand utilizes lines of Haskell-based code in real-time to test sound algorithms, manipulate audio samples instantly, and build minimalist ambient and rhythmic landscapes live on stage. This approach makes him one of the young creators who consistently marries digital programming logic with contemporary musical aesthetics. In addition to releasing digital solo projects such as the album Syntax of Sound through Betrand Angelius Zai's Bandcamp, he also brings this live coding technique to the interdisciplinary realm with the collective VorMarka Ensemble. There, he responds to visual artists' works into adaptive electronic sound structures, which now makes his profile recorded in the Yogyakarta experimental music ecosystem.

For the past decade, CRSRCRSRRR has been one of the core contributors of live-coding practice in Bangkok, Thailand. CRSRCRSRRR delved into the multi-sensory practice of sound and visual creation through algorithms, signal processings and unique human interfaces. CRSRCRSRRR is grounded in a multi-faucet of music backgrounds ranging widely from contemporary music, Club music, Algoraves, and generative/procedural ambient music. With this blend of sonic characters, CRSRCRSRRR performances push the perceptive boundary of genre into a unique amalgamate. His practice examines the use of data in live performances, handbuild electronic music instruments, and live manipulation of sound and visuals through algorithms and live audio visualizations. CRSRCRSRRR is a member of many music groups in various positions, namely Tacet(i) Ensemble (electronics perfomer), CorneaCochlearClub (organizer/performer), S.U.P. (visual artist and DJ), and SYNAP[home/lab] (founder/curator). Apart from live performance and solo music releases, CRSRCRSRRR is also an avid instructor advocating the use of technology in sound creation and hosts Audio programming workshops regularly both in Thailand and Abroad (Hongkong, Indonesia and online classes). Currently, he is a lecturer at Mahidol University, Thailand in both Music College and International College conducting class on sound creation and electronic music.

Sheldon G is the moniker of Yogyakarta-based singer-songwriter and live coder Rayvan Septiawan, created as a space to expand his sonic landscape. The project reflects his evolving interest in experimental electronic music since 2019, and more recently, his exploration of live coding as a primary method of composition and performance. Using TidalCycles as his main tool, Rayvan creates music through a combination of pre-written code and improvisation, focusing on the possibilities offered by algorithmic and generative approaches to sound. Intentional Chaos is Sheldon G’s first live coding album, featuring seven compositions created through a combination of prepared code and improvisation. The album serves as an initial exploration of TidalCycles’ built-in functions, with each piece shaped by influences from industrial, breakcore, and techno music.
