Christian Greuel began working with sound as a form of invisible painting at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the late 1980s and later at the California Institute of the Arts. He transitioned into the medium of virtual reality, most notably with Fakespace Music (Mark Bolas, Niko Bolas, and Ian McDowall) creating immersive 3D experiences in which graphic elements are driven by music.
