Proficient in creating visual elements that complement audio experiences, from generative art to immersive simulations.
Experienced in building robust, scalable applications with an emphasis on backend architecture, real-time systems, and integration with creative tools.
I design responsive, real-time systems that integrate audio, visuals, and computation. As an open-source advocate, I prioritize modular, minimalist workflows to make advanced tools accessible to all.

My work explores the intersection of technology and artistry, inspired by David Sylvian's album Manafon and the intellectual traditions of the Darmstadt, Cologne, and Paris avant-garde scenes. Key focus areas include:
- WiFi-Based Networked Performance Systems: Developing low-latency, collaborative platforms for distributed musicians and performers.
- AI-Driven Improvisation and Real-Time Media Synthesis: Leveraging machine learning to generate adaptive audio-visual content in live settings.
- Interconnected Ecosystems for Multimedia Composition: Building modular frameworks that integrate sound, code, graphics, and emerging technologies for holistic creative expression.
I actively contribute experimental compositions and performances to international platforms, including BBC Radio 3, Antena 2, and WDR 3, fostering global dialogue in contemporary music.
“My work is a living canvas where sound, code, and image converge — a space for improvisation, intuition, and the beauty of structured chaos.”
