xemantic

Berlin

My name is Kazik Pogoda and xemantic is a label I use for sharing my work. I'm a creative technologist working on immersive art installations, interactive projections, performances, operas, theaters, robots, online experiences. For all of them I write special code and most of it I also share as open source.

I've been writing code and building IT systems used by millions of human and non-human agents. But my primary background is actually in philosophy, and now I want to write software which is more "reflective" on our culture which evolves in symbiosis with digital machines. Sometimes I am writing reflections and narratives on Medium.

Check my instagram and vimeo for the artwork.

In my work I want to:

  • evoke emotions with algorithms
  • connect generative and performative arts
  • share the code powering the show and teach my techniques

Thanks to your sponsorship I will have more time and motivation to contribute projects used by:

  • 🎠 audience of all ages, as an immersive experience
  • πŸ§‘β€πŸŽ¨ creatives, media artists, hopefully including you!
  • πŸ‘· creative technologists and coders
  • πŸ€– roboteers
  • 🏦 cultural institutions like theaters and museums

If you don't want to become a sponsor here, then maybe just buy me a teat link, because I don't like coffee.

🌈 an immersive space in Berlin

This is my dream, to build something like on the picture above in the middle of Berlin, a fully immersive venue set up with:

  • projectors with mapping
  • space sensors
  • hardware
  • custom software

Open to visitors, built on open technologies and inviting the whole community of media artists, like Creative Code Berlin, to use it for experimentation and for displaying our work. It could be used for performances, theater or concerts. Your contribution would help me make it happen.
