About Me

I am Antariksh Pasricha, a multi-faceted professional dedicated to bridging the worlds of academic research, innovative teaching, and creative musical expression.

Who I Am

With over 15 years of experience in higher education, I have devoted my career to understanding how we learn, teach, and create music. My work sits at the intersection of cognitive science, technology, and artistic practice.

As a researcher, I explore how emerging technologies—particularly artificial intelligence—can enhance music education and creative expression. My publications have appeared in leading journals and have been cited by scholars worldwide.

As a musician, I believe in the power of sound to communicate what words cannot. My compositions blend classical training with contemporary electronic production, creating soundscapes that challenge and inspire.
