An immersive night of electronic music and real‑time A/V performances featuring artists who push sound and digital art into new territory.
Gábor Lázár joins us from Hungary with his signature hyper‑detailed rhythms and code‑driven sound and visuals. With releases on Raster Media and Planet Mu, and performances at CTM, Berlin Atonal, and MUTEK Montreal, his live A/V sets are unlike anything else.
Joan Dark, one of Austin’s most exciting emerging electronic artists, returns to dadaLab with a powerful new live set, paired with visuals by multimedia artist Jordan M. Boudreau.
blend.mode (panoptikon.party + Devras Plexi) also returns to the dadaLab stage, bringing their high‑energy, tightly synchronized A/V performance that transforms the room into a living digital landscape.
Patterns of Identity: Exploring Max/MSP for Studio & Stage with Gábor Lázár
Sunday, March 22, 2026 | 1 - 2:30p
$25 | $10 Students
dadaLab, Austin TX.
We’re thrilled to offer an extremely rare opportunity: a behind‑the‑scenes workshop with internationally acclaimed electronic musician and artist Gábor Lázár.
Gábor’s performances push the boundaries of club music, digital sound design, and computer‑based composition. In this special session, he will open up his personal Max/MSP performance environment — a custom patch he has been building, refining, and evolving over many years. This is a one‑of‑a‑kind chance to see how one of the most innovative voices in experimental electronic music constructs his sound, composes in the studio, and prepares for live performance.
This workshop functions as a hybrid artist talk + technical deep‑dive, shaped by active discussion with participants. Whether you're attending his performance on March 21st or you've followed his releases over the last decade, this is your chance to explore the musical and technological thinking behind his work.
