Every Constant Is Obsolete

Olga Vechtomova composes and records electronic music as Every Constant Is Obsolete. She is a Professor at the University of Waterloo, conducting research in computational systems for music and creativity. The goal of her research is to design systems that can inspire music artists and help them find new forms of creative expression. She recorded three albums as Every Constant is Obsolete and performed live at Bleep/Blorp 2023.

Every Constant Is Obsolete was scheduled to perform their piece “Where the Shadows Become Us” at Bleep / Blorp 2024, but could not attend. Hopefully we will be able to add them to a future festival. You can check out their work below.
