My practice as a designer and tool-builder is rooted in the digital sphere and focuses on the research, development and social activation of experimental interfaces, infrastructures and on and offline sites for exchange. I collaborate with artists, collectives, researchers and cultural organisations on projects that pay critical attention to the processes, tools, and mechanisms that co-constitute them. I enjoy working with free, libre, and open-source software and hardware with a particular interest in accessibility, sustainability and experimental methods of liveness and dissemination.
I am an active member of Amsterdam-based workshop cooperative Hackers & Designers (since 2019), where we develop hybrid publishing tools, explore collaborative methodologies and experiment with workshopping as a format for exchange. I am also involved with of Eindhoven-based interstitial collective body Office of Queer Affairs (since 2017), where we openly explore the involvement of the local queer community's perspective in the museum's curatorial practices. I am also part of the Digital Discomfort Working Group (since 2021), a research group centred around the collective exploration, imagination and affirmative re-politicisation of compu-relational practice in conversation with crip techno-science, anti-colonialism, queer struggles, and environmental justice.
