About

AV Club is a San Francisco based algorave artist collective focused on live performance where technology itself is the instrument. We use samplers, sequencers, livecode environments, modular synths, feedback loops, generative art, microscopes, & more to make sights and sounds you haven't encountered before but will want to experience again.

Want to get involved? Start by joining our Discord! Send us a DM on Instagram and we'll message you an invitation.
