Talk: The History of Polivoks


October 19, 2016 - October 19, 2016 | Pałac Krzysztofory

In the 1980s, few Western-made synths made it behind the Iron Curtain into the Soviet Union. Russia needed its own instrument. The Polivoks was designed by an engineering team led by Vladimir Kuzmin at the Urals Vector Company in Ekaterinburg. Released in 1982, it has become legendary for its industrial look and unique sound. Kuzmin himself talks about the Polivoks’ fascinating history, and gives a demonstration of the instrument. Moderating is Polish musician and synth-builder Paweł Kulczyński.
