Max Cooper is a London-based electronic composer and multi-disciplinary artist whose work bridges the realms of music, science, and visual art. With a PhD in computational biology, Cooper's career is a rare synthesis of intellectual inquiry and emotive sound design. Originally trained as a geneticist, Cooper channels his scientific curiosity into expansive audio-visual projects that examine humanity’s place in the cosmos. His label Mesh serves as a platform for these explorations, hosting works that fuse immersive installations, algorithmic visuals, and richly textured compositions.

Known for his emotionally resonant productions and pioneering use of spatial audio formats like Dolby Atmos, Cooper crafts sonic narratives that invite introspection and wonder. His performances often feature collaborations with architects and visual artists, transforming concert venues into multi-sensory environments. His latest release, On Being, marks a deeply personal turn—constructed from thousands of anonymous audience quotes, the album meditates on the shared fragility and beauty of human experience. From the Acropolis of Athens to the contemporary venues of Montréal, Cooper is reshaping the contours of electronic music and the spaces it inhabits.
