MA work

I am interested in past and future technologies, notions of business and idealism, what they mean to us and how they inform which worlds come true and which worlds are discarded.

I am a critical optimist and believe in progress. I like looking at big systems and individual parts. I enjoy both thinking and making. I aim to create social objects that suggest alternative ways of living in alternative realities. I believe that this is a good way to make the future.
