20: Andrew Melchior
It is a pleasure to have Andrew Melchior in the new episode of "The Illiac Suite". Andy began as a classically trained pianist and later explored digital music production and internet technologies, leading to a job at EMI Music. His career expanded into photography, digital energy, and augmented reality, eventually working with Magic Leap and renowned artists like Björk and Massive Attack. He played a key role in innovative projects such as Björk Digital, the VR album Vulnicura, and AI-driven music experiences. Since COVID, he has been a freelance artist, working on AI-driven creative projects, including a sonic artwork for the European Capital of Culture 2026 and an AI-powered spatial audio experience in Poland.
