I am a Lisbon-based artist and computer programmer. Through the use of narrative generative systems, I create simulations that reveal technological observation as a form of worldmaking, while investigating technological lifecycles from hype through adoption, infrastructuralization and obsolescence. I am interested in the built infrastructures which enable our digital lives, as well as the ways in which their presence in the natural landscape affects our perception: the moments when utility becomes nostalgia. Drawing on media archaeology and art history, my research process traces the origins of our current thought patterns around (technological) progress.
My work has been exhibited in shows and screenings at SOLO Contemporary, Yale University, Center for Contemporary Art Gdansk, Science Gallery London, Onassis ONX Studio, University of Maryland, Inter/Access Toronto, Athens Digital Art Festival, OFFICE IMPART, Panke Gallery, Artemis Gallery. My real-time simulation work, Arcadia Inc. was recognized as a 2021 winner of the Lumen Prize in Art and Technology. In 2025 I was awarded the ABS Emerging Artist of the Year award and the SOLO AI Award. I holds a B.S. in Computer Science (2016) from Yale University and an M.P.S. in New Media Art (2021) from New York University, where I also served as a research resident and adjunct professor.
Besides my personal work, I sometimes design or build software for other artists and teach. You can view an archive of my client work here.
In a former life, I used to do competitive programming.
