Ujif_notfound is a stage name of Kyiv media artist Heorhiy Potopalskyi. His main activity is the creation of multimedia systems based on the algorithm of the kinetic relationship between man and the program. His live performances are based on the generation of audio and visual streams in real time. By controlling the pre-written programs (patches) Ujif_notfound, with each new startup, creates an unique audiovisual space, which can only exist during the performance and is impossible to be recreated.

XAH and Bobryk are young Ukrainian projects. XAH is a harsh noise emanation of SCHPERRUNG band members from Donetsk. Bobryk is a project of Freak Friendly DIY label boss Valentyn Nusimov.
