Yanni Alexis Mardas, known as Magic Alex, was a Greek inventor and director of the electronics department at Apple Corps. Born on May 2, 1942, in Athens, he moved to London in 1965 where he showcased his light installations and met John Lennon. Mardas developed several inventive projects, including a color-changing car and a unique audio storage device, though none were realized. His ambitious plans included building a superior recording studio for The Beatles, which ultimately failed. He later attempted to create bulletproof cars but struggled to produce functional prototypes.
