What We Make

Maremel Studio is a living lab for:

  • Music production → AI-assisted scoring, original tracks, sound experiments
  • VR / XR / AR creation → building new realities, testing immersive ideas
  • AI documentaries → GoldKey Archives, a strange and fascinating series
  • Podcasts + archives → conversations, ideas, archives from Maremel Institute days

We don’t just finish things. We document, play, explore, and share along the way.

About Maremel Studio

Maremel Studio grew out of the Maremel Institute — once focused on research, now reborn as a creative skunkworks under Rethink Next LLC.

We’re funded by curiosity, run by Dr. Gigi Johnson (Managing Partner and majority owner), and always looking for the next strange idea to chase.
