This is the BioHack Academy documentation site of Tim van Elferen
I have a bachelor in arts and technology at the Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht, where I studied interactive performance arts. During my internship at the Waag Fablab I worked on the perfomative installation Series patchmaker No. 1 During my graduation I created the poetic installation TØ (vimeo) which uses living organism to interact with the game of life algorithm in order to generate audiovisual landscapes.
I am currently working freelance as an artistic engineer in the cultural sector, where I develop exhibitions, installations and I install artworks. My maker skills are tinkering, 3d-modeling, 3d-printing, programming and soldering.
I joined BHA want to learn more about tinkering with living materials, to create meaningfull interactions and to incorporate this in my artistic practise.
