I like networks, euphemisms, maps and CSS. Some time ago I went to technical school and learned a plethora of outdated skills - it was fun. I survived and moved on to art school, this time using conspicuously vague arguments to justify my work. Currently in Rotterdam, I am hoping to simultaneously learn new binary tricks and restore my faith in humanity.
 
Hmmmm pork chops.

*'''TIME OF OUR LIGHTS''' is a physical, yet metaphorical clock that scans live obituaries from the Web, displays the name of the deceased and uses a light display to embody those who have passed away. It is an homage to the deceased, a conceptual enthroning and a reminder of our own ephemeral, fragile condition.

Projects


  • HOW TO RUN AN AUTHORITARIAN STATE IN THE DIGITAL ERA step by step, easy to follow <Read more>



  • TRAGIC NINE Nine lines of tragic soap opera news in your email every day. <Read more>


  • THE LISTENER is a chatting program that interferes with the normal flow of a conversation, creating a 'third' person, a mediating agent. The whole thing printed off a massive plotter. <Read more>


  • TIME OF OUR LIGHTS is an homage to the deceased, a conceptual enthroning and a reminder of our own ephemeral, fragile condition. < In Limbo... >
