Rip Space is pleased to present SYNTHESIS ASSEMBLY, an evening of performance and improvisation with sound, coding, digital tools, and collaborative AI systems. This one-night program explores hybrid ecologies through the convergence of human and machine, organic and synthetic, field recording and feedback loop. SYNTHESIS ASSEMBLY emerges from the idea that new forms are not built from scratch, but from the tension and resonance between unlike yet interconnected parts. Drawing from ecological systems, improvisational practice, and open-source code and AI platforms, the event frames synthesis as a space of active negotiation, where difference acts as a generative force. Across live performance, experimentation with sound + field recording, movement, jazz, and AI collaboration, this program brings together artists who engage with technology as a medium of relation and interconnection.
The program centers around a series of multimedia performances and a collaborative vibe coding jam. Vibe coding is an emerging form of co-creation with AI. Rather than writing code line by line, creators interact with machine learning systems using intuitive prompts. This approach shifts coding towards a more intuitive, expressive, and open-ended system, one that is less about technical expertise, and more about improvisation and possibility. By adopting the word vibe it opens up coding as a medium that can be improvisational, and accessible, opening pathways for a broader range of creators to explore what software can be, and what kinds of worlds it can build.
