I’m a media artist, programmer and researcher. I used to primarily work with language and text, with a focus on digital textuality, generative poetics and the aesthetics of algorithm. Now I try to expand my practice more in the material world by learning and working with electronics. Many of my works bring up artistic and non-human perspectives through alternative usage of technology.
