Robert Burger (1995-2010): guitar, synth guitar

Founding member Rob's solo project, known as The Gak Omek, has released three albums, Nonrenormalizability, Return of the All-Powerful Light Beings, and Alien Eye. Rob's style has been compared to Robert Fripp, Steve Hackett, David Torn, and Pat Metheny. His CDs take cerebral music to a new level by incorporating majestic guitar playing, electronic percussion, and cosmic synth sounds. Return of the All-Powerful Light Beings was voted one of the Top 20 Progressive Rock Albums of 2004 by Progressive Soundscapes Radio, Sea of Tranquility, Nucleus, and Radio Gnome.  

Rob is also an award-winning artist and a digital illustration teacher.

George hosts a weekly Friday night radio program, Nocturnal Transmissions, on WPRB-FM 103.3 in Princeton, and otherwise can be found simply sitting under the stars and pondering the vastness of the Cosmos from his undisclosed location in the Great Northwest. Recently rumored to be hanging out with Robert Fripp...

Luke Carson (2003): bass

Ian Creech (2003): drums/percussion
Jordan McClain (2003): guitar/electronics

john fair (2002): drums, percussion

John hung up his drumsticks, unplugged the vDrums, and left Brainstatik after the 2002 Crosswicks concert to persue the muse of guitar-based songwriting. We do understand. Thanks John... it was an amazing six months of music. Remember that the door is always open! Really!

In the summer of 2003, John moved out of the neighborhood. We wish him luck in his new home and surroundings!
