The Lab
Installations, live audio-reactive sets, and real-time experiments. This is the half of the practice that proves the other half: making perception systems do something beautiful, live, with no second take.

An interactive woven installation that senses its surroundings and begins to move without being touched. Built for Rita Madarász’s MA thesis project at MOME and shown at Ars Electronica 2024, it explores technology as an agent for evoking the sense of touch. I designed the 3D-printed components, the electronics, and the sensing and motion control.

Ongoing research into the connection between dance, music and visuals. Each of the three controls and depends on the other two, forming a feedback loop that generates itself — a whirlpool that pulls the audience in. Body tracking drives the visuals, the visuals cue the music, and the music moves the dancer.

A live, audio-reactive VJ set designed and performed for the Zsolnay Light Festival. Visuals were projection-mapped onto the DJs and the space around them and driven in real time by the incoming audio, with a laser rig cued to the same analysis.

MSc thesis · Bosch Thesis Project Award, 1st prize
An award-winning thesis that trains a pollen detector without a hand-labelled detection dataset. A pipeline segments pollen from a classification dataset, animates it over synthetically generated moving backgrounds, and emits YOLO-format annotations for the resulting frames. A custom PyQt annotation tool backed by PostgreSQL produced the source classification data, and the trained YOLOv5s model reaches >90% mAP@IoU50 on real footage.
