WHO WE ARE
DORIA J.D. / Founder

As an artist he explores Generative Materiality and Material Cosmologies. As a ‘character’ in a story he plays the game of life to its liberating end and open-ended sense.
Sayfan, founder of the Laboratory of Intelligence Culture and avid researcher, in life and profession. She is a nomad of culture and knowledge, carrying the strictly necessary, merging a background in biophysics, complexity and design research as a raft to cross the torrents of thought, engaged relations, and learning via first hand experimentation. She teaches and collaborates at multiple universities.
