The Glad Scientist is the pseudonym of Puerto-Rican artist Daniel Eric Carlos Hector Alberto Sabio. His works range from witty 2D digital creations to immersive code-driven installations and live virtual reality music performances. They have garnered diverse international attention, from ISEA (International Symposium of Electronic Art) to Chale Wote Street Art Festival, Bass Coast Music Festival, SXSW and beyond. He wields a BSc in Computational Media (Computer Science+Art) from Georgia Tech, and utilizes his background in coding to literally blur the lines between art’s various media, bringing in elements such as generative visuals, computer vision, brain-machine interfaces, and artificial intelligence as colors in his technical palette. His unique perspectives on technology and its role in creativity stem from a bizarre mix of subcultures fused with insights gained from studies in some of music’s richest cultures: Ghana, Turkey and Brazil. Sonically, he pulls inspiration from the ether, and can be found listening to pseudo-silence for hours in preparation for his next endeavor.

VIRTUALBOY: A playful foray into the long-lost genres of free-bit and chip-hop, the album fuses the approach and methodologies of free jazz and street poets with the unintimidated tonal tempers of early video game music. Performed in virtual reality, and recorded with intense attention to spatial audio, the album is set to release on a limited number of 3D printed toys. These toys, in conjunction with a forthcoming app, provide unlimited unique augmented reality experiences with the compositions dependent on the listener’s environment and behavior.
