Francesca Guccione

About this exposition

This exposition continues the series The Sonic Atelier – Conversations with Contemporary Composers and Producers, dedicated to exploring the evolving role of the composer today. Through a Q&A format, the project examines how contemporary creators integrate composition, production, performance, and technology into their artistic practice. This interview features Robot Koch, an award-winning composer, producer, and performer whose work spans electronic music, orchestral writing, and immersive audiovisual performance. Koch reflects on his hybrid identity as a creator, discussing the interplay between writing and production, the role of technology as an expressive tool, and the potential of spatial audio and immersive formats. The conversation also addresses the transformations of the music industry, the impact of artificial intelligence, and the importance of authenticity and craftsmanship in the creative process.
