Robin Fox – The History of Australian Electronic Music
Experience the history of Australian electronic music with acclaimed artist Robin Fox.
As part of Open House Melbourne 2025, Melbourne Recital Centre throws open its doors to welcome music-lovers, architecture and acoustic aficionados, sound buffs, curious explorers and discoverers.
Drawing threads from the early free music experiments of pianist and composer Percy Grainger, Melbourne Recital Centre’s 2025 Artist in Residence Robin Fox takes listeners on a journey through the Australian electronic music psyche.
Weaving stories that combine institutional and underground scenes, witness live demonstrations featuring antique instruments from the Melbourne Electronic Sound Studio (MESS) collection, such as the legendary Fairlight CMI digital synthesizer, in this rare opportunity to experience Australian electronic music history firsthand.
Robin Fox is an internationally recognised Australian-based audio-visual artist working across live performance, exhibitions, public art and composition for contemporary dance. His audio-visual laser works, which synchronise sound and visual electricity in hyper-amplified 3D space, have been performed in over 60 cities worldwide.
