I’m an extended reality designer exploring digital culture, Afrofuturism,
and natural systems and forms.
I build interactive experiences and generative audiovisual environments that tell stories through XR and creative coding.

Collaborators:
Frederick Ekwaro-Osire - (Posters, Graphics, 3D, Animation)
AFROBEATS NL Team - (Logo, Graphics)
As a collaborator in this event, I designed and coded generative artwork, posters, logos, and social media materials for a new AFROBEATS event in Groningen.
Designing these materials was an exercise in working with node-based coding environments rather than traditional graphic design softwares. All materials are made using generative and procedural techniques in TouchDesigner, as well as 3D modeling techniques using Blender (seen in the coin logo animation below).
