TO OUR FRIENDS, FAMILY, COLLEAGUES, STUDENTS & COMPANIES:

First of all, we want to give anyone reading this a huge, heartfelt THANK YOU! We’ve spent the last 10 years on an incredible journey in the world of synthesis, electronic music, and community building. On this path we have been so fortunate to connect and collaborate with incredible people and companies within the Pacific NorthWest, across the US, and even globally.

This past few years has brought some pretty significant life changes for us, as it has for many. As a lot of you know, Tobias has been battling some pretty intense vision loss for a while, and this year bravely faced multiple rounds of surgeries, resulting in some necessary career changes. Sometimes life doesn’t go as planned, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still amazing possibilities ahead. When one door closes, often another one opens, and we are heading in some exciting new directions.

What does this mean? Well Techno Logic, as it has been, is changing and pausing for the time being. We are so unbelievably grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey with us. If you are reading this, that includes you too! We could not have done this without the support of the companies and organizations who first took a chance on our crazy idea, the amazing local folks who have been part of our Techno Logic Co-Lab Crew, every single one of our hilarious and incredible students, and everyone who has invited us into their communities. You mean the world to us.

In this next chapter, we are taking every piece of experience, inspiration, and communal insight we’ve had along the way, and pouring it all into a new endeavor that we believe will invite more people to discover the magical world of sound design. If you’re interested in learning more, check out www.chompiclub.com.

Check out this video as Tobias shares a bit about our Techno Logic story and his journey along the way.

So for now, we just want to give you all a big fat hug and say thanks again. Hopefully you can look back fondly on our time together, and we hope you’ll join us on our next adventure!

MUCH LOVE, Chelsea & Tobias

We’ve shared music, film, engineering, photography, and performance projects in our student highlight series and now comes the stellar graphic design work of Shontaeia! 👽
She is one of the most self-motivated young people we know, constantly teaching herself new things, repeatedly surprising us with mind blowing compositions, and pushing herself to new heights in her design prowess. Shontaeia has learned a multitude of creative skills from music production, illustration, design, and entrepreneurship. She even started a clothing line called Jaji, with a social justice driven purpose for her senior project! 💻👕

Graphic Design:
Exploring colorful inspiration through apparel and graphic design practice; using design as a tool for social change and community impact
-
"I believe colors are everything. They bring out the best in the world. My work is heavily inspired by how I see the world and its people. Chaotic at times, very unique, and beautiful. By creating my art, I am able to share with others how amazing this world is to me.” - Shontaeia

Our next student highlight features the stunning visuals of Valyncia. A self taught painter, she’s spent the past 2 years exploring different creative, production, music, design, and painting / illustration mediums, eventually crafting her Y>E series. This series has taken her to deep places of emotional vulnerability and developed a strong creative voice in the process. 🎨💀🔥

VALYNCIA
Painting, Drawing, Design:
Exploring depth and vulnerability in self expression through mediums of painting, drawing, and design.
-
“Throughout Y>E, I wanted to tell a story about the parts of myself I'll be leaving behind and the new parts of myself that have emerged from the ruins. The main goal of my collection is to help me and those around me gain a better understanding of who I was as an artist before, and what helped develop me into the artist I am today.” - Valyncia
