Art and Technology

20 posts

A deep look at the tools, systems, and engineering principles behind contemporary media art.

This category covers the technical backbone of my installations: AI models, sensor architectures, data pipelines, real-time systems, blockchain protocols, motion tracking, and custom electronics used in museum environments.

Each article turns complex technology into clear, operational insights for curators and studios commissioning interactive work.

If you work at the intersection of art, engineering, and cultural innovation, this is your hub for reliable, production-ready art-tech knowledge.

Nostalgie World started as an art installation and evolved into a storytelling wellness universe.

In 2023, it was awarded People’s Choice at Doncaster Art Fair.
In 2025, I exhibited it again at the MATAROA Awards as a selected emerging artist.

Now I’m expanding the scope and mission of the project, from an installation into a next-generation, immersive storytelling brand.

I’ve just shipped the first digital experience inside Nostalgie World:
The Journey of Reset - A personalized 7-day journaling experience designed to help you reset, reconnect with yourself, and learn to trust your own voice again.
