about
the practice predates the profession.
product designer. ai tools, financial products, and the internal systems a company actually runs on. trained as an architect first, which is where the interest in systems came from.
creative technologist, not always digital. i like to practice “let the work speak for itself” a little too seriously, since my time at spa delhi.
anything that offers a new way to express an idea, and the mechanics of it, usually gets my attention. some interests stay for years, others just long enough to understand them: painting and film, printmaking, animation, writing, architecture, furniture, data viz, music, and maybe even apps.
being at idc, iit bombay shifted my attention from what we make to why we make it. that curiosity has since wandered through philosophy, mythology, history, business, kickboxing, even formula 1.
i don’t think of technology as an end in itself. it’s simply another medium. i’m usually more interested in what it causes than what it enables.
