Philosophical Notes

10 posts

Short, reflective essays on perception, meaning, attention, and the human side of interactive art.

These notes examine the inner mechanics of experience, how people see, think, choose, and interpret inside an installation or digital space. They blend philosophy, psychology, and artistic practice, offering accessible insights grounded in real-world observations from my works.

Expect ideas about identity, agency, doubt, emotion, curiosity, and cognitive habits, written for readers who want depth.

Perfect for curators, designers, and anyone shaping human-centered technological environments.

Write the Artist Statement That Actually Gets You Noticed

Most artists treat their statement like a chore.

A paragraph they “should” write.
A mechanical requirement for grants, curators, and exhibitions.

That’s why most artist statements sound the same: flat, vague, and forgettable.

This guide fixes that.

You’ll learn how to craft an artist statement that actually communicates your vision; the kind that helps curators, galleries, and collectors feel your work, not just skim it.

It’s a practical playbook for turning your ideas, influences, and intentions into a narrative that moves people.
