#198 - Tom Cosm: Orchid, Music Tech & Workflow

In this episode, Tom Cosm talks about building Orchid with Telepathic Instruments, getting back into live performance, brainwave-driven music experiments, and creative workflows in Ableton Live. He shares thoughts on AI for producers, live set design, sound design, and how technology can remove friction without replacing creativity.


Tom Cosm is a New Zealand–born producer, technologist, coder, and educator who has been pushing the boundaries of music and sound for over two decades. Known as an “audio mad scientist,” his career spans global tours as an electronic artist, pioneering music tutorials on YouTube, and building custom creative software that fuses sound, code, and biometrics. As Technical Director at Telepathic Instruments, Tom built the first prototype of Orchid alongside Kevin Parker from Tame Impala, and now oversees its development, bridging code, electronics, and design.
