>_ V-XL is Baptiste Tavernier, a Franco-Spanish artist based in Tokyo, working at the intersection of digital fabrication and sci-fi worldbuilding.
>_ His artistic trajectory began in the invisible structures of sound. Trained in Music & Digital Arts, he spent years constructing sonic architectures—until a severe and permanent tinnitus suddenly altered his perception. A dissonance that forced a re-rooting.
>_ After discovering 3D printing, he started treating the machine not just as a manufacturing tool, but as a synthesizer of artistic shapes, using layer lines, glitches, and printing errors as visual frequencies.
>_ Today, he develops a meta artistic project called Arkhorin Lore, that blends 3D-printed mixed-media sculpture, open source art, and science-fiction narrative.
