GENERATIVE

EXPERIMENTS

Software is made to simplify and accelerate the workflow of a designer. However, in the software development process, developers cannot always cover all the applications and functionalities for their tools. Programming can give me more flexibility as a designer and pushes my bounderies further. With the logic of good code I can define rule sets for the computer to generate new designs and enhance them with user interactions for a more immersive spatial experience. With sensoric interactions like motion detection or sound reactions the user changes his familiar perspective as a consumer and becomes an integral and active part of the space.
