a few notes from @brileigh and I's visit to the Ojas listening room in NYC
* Ojas and Devon Turnbull
before founding Ojas, Devon Turnbull studied at Parsons and adopted the tag "Ojas" for mixtapes, graffiti, flyers, etc. in 2003 he founded the streetwear label Nom de Guerre with some friends and over the next few years travelled frequently to Japan as he developed an interest in high-efficiency drivers, horns, and tube amplifiers.
in his spare time, he built Altec-inspired horn speakers for himself and friends which later became DIY flat-pack kits sold through Virgil Abloh's Canary Yellow platform.
Nom de Guerre closed in 2013 and Turnbull turned his attention to Ojas full-time as an audio practice. by 2018 his custom systems found their way into stores like Supreme, venues like Public Records, and producer Mark Ronson's studio. in 2022 he produced Hi-Fi Listening Room Dream No. 1, an immersive installation that was first presented in Lisson Gallery (NYC, London) before touring to many other institutions. 11 replies
