His first in this field was Superposition, a collaboration with the University of Southern California, a live duet between acclaimed Mezzo Soprano Juliette Pochin and the D-Wave quantum annealer installed at USC.
Other projects in recent years include Bat Wars: The Four Awaken, in which a violinist and pianist duet with a live AI-generated script based on characters from iconic movies,[10] Conducting Shakespeare,[11] wherein he remixed Shakespeare live for two actors at the Victoria and Albert Museum, based on the real-time bio-signal readings of four audience members; and Remember a Day,[12] which was a collaboration with a lady with Alzheimer's setting her daily plan and medication reminders to music as an aid to memory, and performing the tunes as part of a piece for mezzo-soprano, cello and electronics.
[14] Alexis initially gained recognition for his performance Sunlight Symphony,[15][16] which turned the University of Plymouth's iconic Roland Levinsky Building into a musical instrument played by the rising sun.
Other prominent works include Cloud Chamber[18][19][20] with a violinist playing a duet with subatomic particles in real-time – and Insight[21] in which Alexis (who has the harmless visual condition palinopsia) simulated his hallucinations live on an iPad, which were turned into sound accompanied by a flautist.
