Diary of a Human on Earth
Hands-on contributions:
design exploration, 3D printing, electronics, prototyping, video editing, graphic design.
About the project:
i make videos about design, engineering, 3D-printing, human-computer interaction, and slightly strange curiosity. sometimes i talk to plants. sometimes i build robots with emotional issues. it's all part of figuring out how we shape our tools, and how they shape us. this channel is part lab, part diary, and maybe a gentle rebellion against flat, forgettable design. it's a work in progress, just like everything else. the goal is to share the creative process as it happens—uncertain, emotional, exploratory. and maybe, if it works, to leave you with the burning desire to create something of your own.
It all started when I began a Masters in Human Computer Interaction at UCL. The program pushed me to question how things are designed—not just interfaces, but the fundamental ways we interact with technology and the world around us.
The channel is a video diary that I use to explore interaction questions about some of my projects. Some projects make it to a video, some others stay in the process, evolve and become something else. Some things are very random, others have thought. Things like, what if we could talk to plants? What if buildings could know our emotions? Emotional design. What HCI means.
Most of my work is inspired by Mark Weiser, Bret Victor, and many other pioneers in design, interaction, and computing. Their vision of technology that disappears into the background, that enhances rather than distracts, that understands the human context—these ideas drive the experiments and explorations you see on the channel.
