Evolution
During my Master’s I had the luck to have a one-year mentorship/tutoring program with Pete and Joel from Hellicar&Lewis. Their work really push the boundaries of technology in a creative way, focusing on being in the moment and creating memories you will cherish and remember. I’ve also participated in paper prototyping workshops held by Pete…

The end of year show was around the corner. I finalized the project, but now needed to work with the space where the installation would be set up. I got the area next to the gallery, overlooking the cafeteria at Khio. The advantage of that spot was the space (huge), and having electric plugs near…

I decided to call it “Through the looking glass: creating enchanting experiences through design and emergent technology”. The reason I used “Through the Looking Glass” in the title is because through reflecting on what…
