This Digital Synth was made by one of our music-nerd members at the Hackspace. Drew's work can be outlined here in the following article.

One of the nice things about building a digital synthesizer is that everything is just code. My code is responsible for generating a series of integers that my DAC turns into audio, but I can do a lot of other things along the way as long as I can deliver

Vancouver Hack Space Society (VHS) brings you Vibes-based Maker Space (VMS)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Over the past year, VHSers have jumped on the Generative AI (G-AI) train and after burning through most of our savings, VHS is proud to present the evolution of making: Vibes-based Making.

While traditional forms of art, making and hacking have always required artists and makers to commit effort and time to acquire the relevant knowledge and experience. Suffer no more!
G-AI has made humdrum art and everyday design accessible to everyone!

Vibe-based programming uses G-AI to automated the Solve Labour Out-and-out Practical making challenge.

With VMS, VHS has brought the best of both worlds together and solved the challenge of why should you learn electronics, when you can just tell AI what you want to generate AND it does it all for you!

The time of having to go to VHS and wasting precious time to learn and play with technology and materials is OVER!

Have a project? Just tell VMS what you want to make and the fully-automated luxury G-AI hackspace commissioning system will DESIGN and MAKE and INTEGRATE the statistically most like thing matching what you tell it to!

Want to make a giant robot with frickin' lasers shooting out of its eyes? DONE!
Want to make it operate independently!? DONE!
Want to make it slice, dice and julienne your veggies?! Our integrated metal shop will supply it with dual wielding katanas or one of the 42,069 other options! NICE and DONE!

Just plug your idea to VMS. Get your order code. Pay for the order. Drop the supplies into the receptacle on Venables and come pickup it through our alley access at the back of the building when it's done!

No more messing around with electronics! No more tedious learning! No more having to spend hours creating perfect solution when characterless, passible, unexceptional, mainstream solutions would do!

Vibes-making only!

This service will initially only be available to existing members.

Please email pr+[email protected] to reserve your spot on the waiting list!

And it works because of AI! AI is what hackers crave!
