Max Cooper on electronic music and Yearning for the Infinite
Max Cooper is an electronica and techno music producer. He recently released the remixes of his 2018 album One Hundred Billion Sparks and is working on his forthcoming project for the Barbican Centre, Yearning for the Infinite. You’ll enjoy our discussion whether you’re an electronic music fan or not, as for Cooper music is almost a by-product of his lifelong interests in maths, science and computational biology. His multidisciplinary approach led him to a long-term collaboration with the Architecture Social Club, a project with Zaha Hadid Architects. Throughout our conversation, we discuss science, maths, and philosophy and how these disciplines inform Cooper's work, enabling him to create multisensory, immersive experiences, which explore concepts such as hope, identity, singularity or indeed infinity.
