IT Generalist, Developer in Prague, He/Him

About

I'm an IT generalist, dabbling A/V artist and programmer by trade. As a member of the /-\ collective, I participated in its various projects and events, including our collaborations with Diffractions (namely the WyrdPatchWorkShops series), as a technician, VJ, consultant, and speaker.

Otherwise, my interests revolve around aleatoric art, cybernetics, human-computer interaction, and hypnagogia. I'm also currently a student of Psychology at UNYP.
