I am quite certain that I am very confused.

Interests

Right now I'm exploring Swedish folk music through code searching for algorithms and architectures that can generate the rhythms and flows of a polska. I'd like to pair this with an interactive sculpture to create a dance-like installation.

I am searching for a certain place or state of mind where I can stand with one foot in the rational, logical reasoning frame of reference which understands the world by fragmenting it, breaking it apart into smaller pieces to understand it, while the other foot stands in this holistic view where you let the world enter into you, not to understand it but to merge with it. Letting it be reshaped by processes that cannot be defined because that would make them cease to be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Arriving after a 19 hour long bumpy sleepless Indian road journey at a beach full of newfound friends and going to a wedding at an outshoot cliff with a single palm tree under the full moon. There where the bride and groom, the vow master, me as witness and a street dog who ate the cake.

Teach, Learn, Share

For the past year I've been using code in an artistic context and would be happy to share what I've learnt. It is a very strange medium which requires a mind that can think rationally as well as emotionally.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A helping hand if needed. I have some carpentry skills and am a natural problem solver.

Also, my embarrassingly bad Farsi... Which I hope to improve! Will as a matter of fact!
