His background in Ethnomusicology—with an emphasis on non-Western folk traditions and avant-garde electronic music—has formed the basis from which much of his diverse work, combining disparate musical genres, stems. His work has been released by labels such as RVNG Intl, Smalltown Supersound, Mexican Summer, [https://boomkat.com/products/le-voyage-8d2cc9b6-2627-42ce-8ea3-ce9584f2948f Type], Beats In Space, Emotional Rescue, Geographic North, Root Strata, and Opal Tapes.

Georgopoulos has worked with figures from a range of disciplines including visual artists Tauba Auerbach and Darren Bader, the filmmaker Paul Clipson, the choreographers Jonah Bokaer and Brittany Bailey.

As a solo artist and as a collaborator, his work has been presented in group exhibitions, museums, on stage and in cinemas internationally, including MoMA PS1, BAM, The Kitchen, Deitch Projects, Walker Art Center, White Columns, MoMA, 303 Gallery, and New Museum.{{Cite web |date=2010-06-28 |title=Warm Up 2010 At MoMA PS1 Schedule |url=https://www.stereogum.com/421482/warm-up-2010-at-moma-ps1-schedule/news/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=Stereogum }}{{Cite web |title=Rules Of The Game |url=http://www.bam.org/rulesofthegame |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=BAM.org }}{{Cite web |title=Alexis Georgopoulos |url=https://artmag.wordpress.com/tag/alexis-georgopoulos/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=ART MAG }}{{Cite web |title=Stretcher {{!}} Features {{!}} Chris Johanson: Now is Now |url=https://www.stretcher.org/features/chris_johanson_now_is_now/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=www.stretcher.org}}{{Cite web |title=Walker Art Center announces ROLU Open Field Artist Residency |url=https://museumpublicity.com/2012/07/11/walker-art-center-announces-rolu-open-field-artist-residency/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=Museum Publicity -US|date=11 July 2012 }}{{Cite web |title=Project Room: The Sound of White Columns |url=https://whitecolumns.org/exhibitions/project-the-sound-of-white-columns/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=White Columns }}{{Cite web |title=MoMA.org {{!}} Millennium Magazines |url=https://www.moma.org/interactives/exhibitions/2012/millenniummagazines/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=www.moma.org}}{{Cite web |title=Doug Aitken {{!}} Sonic Happening, a live music performance set to the film installation of "migration (empire)" featuring Arp, Lichens and White Rainbow {{!}} 303 Gallery |url=https://www.303gallery.com/gallery-exhibitions/doug-aitken9?view=slider#5 |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=www.303gallery.com }}{{Cite web |date=2009-12-12 |title=In Performance: Jonah Bokaer's REPLICA (NYC) |url=https://contemporaryperformance.com/2009/12/12/in-performance-jonah-bokaers-replica-nyc/ |access-date=2022-03-04 |website=Contemporary Performance -US}}
