Jamie Robertson

I work as a full stack developer for music streaming startup, STEM Tech — deconstructing music into its constitutive parts and building it back up in new and exciting ways using machine learning algorithms.

STEM Tech originated from a collaboration with Kanye West to develop a handheld audio mixing device called the StemPlayer.

The partnership was originally with Kano Computing. Kano Computing designed web apps, DIY computers and coding kits for children. Designed to help empower them by teaching them about technology.

I have also previously worked as a developer for the music production software company Reason Studios in Stockholm, Sweden.
