Evan Buswell is a designer, researcher, and musician operating out of the North Bay Area. As New Systems Instruments, Evan has spent the last 5 years producing Eurorack modules rooted in analog electronics, artistic practice, and mathematical and philosophical inquiry. So far, New Systems has released around a dozen modules and generated several new research results. As a musician, Evan releases patient and harmonic music as 1/3 of the imminently expanding Borderlands Collective. In parallel lives (maybe non-Euclidean parallel lives), Evan has a degree in cultural studies from UC Davis, with a dissertation that examines how the changing production of money over the history of capitalism has determined the evolution of mathematical/programming languages.
