Max Tides – From 1st to 4 July 2026

Les Marées Max is an international event dedicated to artists, researchers, educators, engineers and users of Max – a graphical music programming software – featuring conferences, workshops and more. The evening events are open to everyone, featuring concerts, performances and audiovisual installations, held at Logelloù and the surrounding area.

This second edition of Marées Max follows on from the previous one, which took place in September 2024.

David Zicarelli, Director of the Californian company Cycling’74, which publishes the Max software, will be in attendance throughout the four-day event. He will give an opening talk in which he will present recent developments. He will lead a workshop on programming Max patches, answer questions from users designing their own external objects, and take part in the closing panel discussion.
