By education I'm a filmmaker, interaction designer, art critic and physicist. By practice I'm a graphic designer, researcher and cultural organizer. By heart I'm a multimedia explorer interested in participatory, collaborative and open source practices while digging into topics of fiction, unconventional storytelling and interactive, networked narratives. Currently spending most of my time here: https://temporary.fi/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My very first getting in touch with CS was life changing one. CS has definitively this potential although not always properly explored. Therefore I welcome in my place especially those interested in unpredictable scenarios. That's why I'm not excited that much by small talks, sightseeing or souvenirs.

Interests

Social and food fermentation, micro-gestures which performed regularly cause processual change, invention design, creation of personal Parallel Polis
