About
We are a London-based computational art and design studio. We are fascinated by how algorithmic approaches to finding and shaping physical forms can bring previously impossible functions and aesthetics into the world with ease. We craft beautiful algorithms that manifest as things you can touch, hear and experience. Collaboration is central to our approach so if you're in need for complex geometry, generative sound or interactive electronics send us an email!
Topics: procedural design, algorithmic design, nature, physical forms, morphological computation, creative tech, installation art, innovative engineering
Mick Geerits
Mick is a designer with a passion for technology. His background in Industrial Design, Philosophy and Strategy Consulting all contribute to an holistic approach to design. He loves diving into code and electronics as much as debating the abstract values of a project. His obsessions include: emergent behaviour, decentralized systems, electronics and growth algorithms.
