Interactive systems, custom electronics,
and sound — engineered at the edge
of perception.
w8i (Wei Beh, MY) is a Penang-based creative technologist — building interactive systems, custom electronics, and experiential machines across sound, space, and image.
Their work explores post-human mythologies, cybernetics concepts, and immersive ritual soundscapes — blending synthesis, custom electronics, and visual media to create experiential architectures that blur the line between ancestral memory and speculative futures.
As co-founder of Ritual, a creative studio and café in Georgetown, Penang, w8i has cultivated a hub for interdisciplinary experimentation — connecting the local underground electronic scene with international collaborations and research into Southeast Asian diasporic sound practices.
Their performances often transform spaces into temporal altars, where audience, environment, and technology coalesce.
