A composer, architect, and engineer, Xenakis was a forerunner of computer music, sound and light shows, and spatial concerts. He is still inspiring artists from the electronic scene to this day. This documentary reveals the man behind the artist and comments on his utopian and revolutionary vision, which led to the development of a unique art form at the intersection of music, architecture, science, and mathematics. It will particularly appeal to lovers of electronic music, art, and music history.
