I am a generative artist and a morphogenetic designer.  
 My artworks aim at  
 deconstructing the analogue world  
 to rebuild a digital/amplified one.  
 As a designer I create objects, develop code,  
 build installations and change environments  
 with a methodology based on the observation  
 of natural phenomena and its translation  
 into abstract logical synthesis.
