[əʊən əʊˈkiːf] code ∩ creative ∩ art @ epok.techI make art and creative work through tech… adapt and learn across disciplines; explore natural forms, physics, interactions; experiment with creative applications of emerging tech.
I'm interested in creative, conceptual challenges… experiment in tech, physics, maths, art; develop real-time interactive graphics, web, apps, games, AI, XR; explore new spaces to create striking experiences and utility.
WebGL, GLSL.Tensorflow, PyTorch.WebXR.JavaScript, TypeScript, React; some Back-End, ops, native, Node, Python.I'm also into... exploration, travel, nomadism, challenges, other perspectives; art, drawing, exhibitions, discourse, learning, debate, reading; music, gigs, festivals, film, comedy, theatre; scuba, snowboard, parkour, football.

Work focussed on art and creative projects via tech, across many disciplines and roles – senior to lead to director, coder to consultant, concept to R&D to prototype to production – self-driven enterprises, freelance client and agency work. Developing real-time graphics, web, apps, games, AI, XR. Experimenting, researching, and developing across tech, physics, maths, prototyping, algorithms, art. From early concept to research to prototypes to full production builds.

An immersive digital artwork that embodies meditative experiences, co-created with audiences’ natural interactions – Locus is designed to engage audiences in experiences of meditation, it’s being developed for exhibition as a physical installation, a free online experience, and an NFT series of editions. Millions of fluid particles pass through a translucent human bust – their colours match the anatomy they flow within (skin, bone, tissue), tracing ephemeral hints of forms and colours layered within the volume’s depths. Your natural motions affect the flow – movement agitates turbulence, clouding outer surfaces; stillness settles smooth filaments, revealing intricacies of inner depths. Driving immersive audio by the emergent motions of millions of interacting particles in an experimental process – we explore procedural sound to create aleatoric music. An ongoing work-in-progress, building on past experience and several new tech R&D prototypes – Material Point Method fluid-dynamics via gl-mpm, simulating millions of flowing particles via gl-gpgpu, influenced by natural motion interactions via AI body-tracking and glsl-optical-flow – alongside full production plans and team, and raising funds and support.

An interactive artwork installation commissioned by Olta and Arweave, for exhibition at Arweave Day 2025 conference in Berlin. Exploring dialogues between art and audience through natural motion, it connects people with each other across time through gestures, an emergent collaboration co-creating the artwork. The fluid flows with your motions, your hand is a print made of solid particles; occasionally trails of other handprints appear, shadows left by those before you – if your hand touches theirs before they dissolve, your handprint is traced into the artwork, another shadow for a future person to touch. Together, hands connect across the artwork, as you respond to each others’ gestures in a discourse, your shadows touch across time. Integrating my gl-mpm physics simulation tool for fluid-dynamics, glsl-optical-flow natural-motion interaction, and AI hand-tracking to capture traces of audience hand gestures and drive this dialogue.
