Since the beginning of the pandemic, I began developing a new format for artist talks, an ongoing virtual path that presents my research and projects, which often intersect technology, literature, and art. This includes practices like AI-driven fortune telling or generating electricity from wine to power an artwork, drawing from the symbolic role of wine in mystical literature. Over time, the virtual path has evolved, incorporating my latest works and AI-driven elements. Details about the projects in my portfolio.  The project has been presented at various conferences and institutions, including:  Bodies in Digital Transition Conference, Goldsmiths, DESY, Zeuthen [event: Quantum Computers and Art: How and Why], Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg, Inloco Gallery Dubai, Berlin University of the Arts, Ruhr University Bochum, Muthesius University of Fine Arts and Design Kiel, SOMA Gallery Berlin, CPDP Conference Brussels, State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart, UCL MAL London, and IAM Weekend Barcelona.

Egal, ob du neu im Cosplay bist oder schon länger dabei – hier geht es um Spaß, Ideenreichtum und den Mut, einfach loszulegen!
