- **Event Name**: TONIC002: Insula X Niph (AU) / Synthetic Children / Ludus
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Mar, 2026 at 10:00 am – Fri, 27 Mar, 2026 at 01:00 pm
- **Event Description**: After a year of TONIC, we are thrilled to be putting on our first tour and inviting Australian producer Insula to Aotearoa for their first tour of Aotearoa, playing five shows in Te-Ika-a-Māui. Starting off at Snails in Te-Papaioea, joined by Synthetic Children and Ludus. 

Insula operates at the intersection of brutal electronics, live violin, and real-time audiovisual systems. Built from resynthesis, distortion, and physical performance, the project treats the body as both instrument and controller. Recent shows expand into live collaboration with visual artist Niph, forming immersive environments where sound and image evolve together in tightly coupled feedback.

Synthetic Children is the solo moniker of Pōneke based artist Celina Goacher (either/eyether, Monty Hall’s Problem, Khaki Department, bitch whistle). Through a tangled mess of hardware synths and drum machines she endeavors to create cathartic dancefloor experiences by navigating dissociative atmospheres via autotuned vulnerabilities, often discovering gender-euphoric climaxes atop weighty grooves.

Within Aotearoa’s electronic community, Ludus has carved a distinct path through her ever-evolving practice as an avid sound designer and producer. With a knack for merging unexpected textures and rhythms, her production and DJing explores the range between ambient stillness and club intensity, where broken percussion and high frequency textures converge.
