Sound you can step inside.

I have played in bands and performed in front of audiences since I was a child. In person, live experiences are the past, present, and future of entertainment. Nothing can replace the feeling of being drenched in light and sound in a room full of people.

I co-founded Studio Z+R with my longtime creative partner, filmmaker and laser artist Zak Forrest. We combine narrative, light, and sound to create immersive experiences that shift perspectives—drawing on the past to imagine entirely new futures.

STUDIO Z+R · MUSEUM FIASCO · AREA15, LAS VEGAS

Animalcule

Journey into the mystery of the microscopic universe.

ANIMALCULE transforms Museum Fiasco at AREA15 in Las Vegas into a living ecosystem of light, sound, and motion. Inspired by the discovery of microscopic life, laser-drawn organisms drift through luminous landscapes as spatial audio surrounds visitors in a world that feels both futuristic and ancient.

Created by laser artist Zak Forrest and composer and sound designer Ramtin Arablouei, the experience moves from vast galaxies to the hidden universe within us. Forms emerge, dissolve, and reassemble in a continuous cycle of discovery.

Step inside. Look closer. Everything is alive.
