creative scientist

• Electronics and Audio consultant
• Worked on the design, development and test of the hardware for the emitters and receivers
• Went from breadboard prototypes to 150 fully working devices in 12 weeks after three iterations of the hardware to ensure best battery life and audio quality

• Consultant on the backend software driving the laser devices
• Built a OSC server and client system capable of controlling the laser position and speed at 60fps
• Built a GUI in Python for a touch-screen, enabling operator to control the show

• As one of the eight artist of the team, I developed Joker, a drum machine which requires the user to wear a mask. It both allows a sense of freedom and enable the input signals to travel on the surface of the skin towards the electronic device translating inputs into sounds and rhythms.
• Contributed towards the design of the whole installation, going from a simple idea of exploring communication to the final work 12 months later
• The art piece has been showcased in many places such as the V&A and Barbican in London and its creation resulted in a publication at the NIME conference. A new version of it will be presented in 2018.
