With a critical mindset toward the dominant paradigm of technology, he examines counter-narratives regarding computational processes, interactive cybernetic systems, and their emergent behaviours, questioning their social and emotional impact. As a composer, his music investigates experimental approaches to sound generation, field recordings, acoustic instrumentation, digital synthesis, DSP, and noise. Akbari directs his experimental practices into audio-visual performances and installations, interactive software, and multi-sensory experiences.

His work has been presented in different festivals and exhibitions around the world, such as DOK Neuland, Athens Digital Arts, Geneva International Film Festival, ARS Electronica, Recto VRso, Mutek Forum, Simultan, Uncloud, New Media Fest, 3D Web Fest, Cinnamon Colomboscope, Lacuna, Videofenster, and Graphical Web Conference, among numerous others.
