GRANTECAN is the largest and most advanced optical-telescope in the world. The fluctuations in GRANTECAN-data reveal the mysterious patterns of our Universe.

In Sinergia GRANTECAN invites artists‎ to analyze these signals of repetition,‎ by feeding astronomy-data into their pipe-‎ line, driving algorithms and simulations.‎ Exchanging knowledge among the digital‎ avant-garde by a change of perspective.‎ The artworks will be‎ exhibited on an quarterly basis inside of GRANTECAN.

  1. Artist statement; wat is je specialisme, wat maakt jouw werk uniek?

    My fascination for technology and science runs deep. It's thus that I like to combine the two, strongly guided by media theory. Offering the power of communication to messages that can't be lost in noise.

  2. Wat zijn je ambities? Wat wil je over vijf jaar bereikt hebben?

    In five years, Sinergia will be hosted by other institutions around the globe, sharing my fascination for science, astronomy and immersive communication-methods.

  3. Wat is het belangrijkste dat je hebt geleerd tijdens je studie?

    The drive to make and learn.
