I was born in 1985 as a digital native. After studying IT - finding it too boring - I went to art school and started working as an artist. My goal is not to create art using the newest technological or digital tools, but to show how these tools create the digital cultures we inhabit and to wonder how they (and we) will change in the future. In my practice I’ve sold my DNA data online to the highest bider, created an internet of binary smoke signals and asked Papuan tribe members to describe the internet to me, all to be able to document, visualise or reveal our present digital culture through art.
