My work with Mindesign Labs looks at how design, cognition, and XR can support neurodiverse users.

David Lynch was a monumental influence on my life & work. From seeing his exhibitions in DTLA & NYC (Big Bongo Night) to sharing space with him in Kafkaesque (2024, DOX), his legacy shaped my journey. Rest in peace, maestro. 🖤

Last September when I was in Prague, the prolific cinematographer Jaroslav Brabec took some black and white portraits of me at DOX, where some of my photographs were on display for the exhibition.📸 🤘

I guess this is a statement that may divide people but I also believe in it.

NeuroAI: A field born from the symbiosis between neuroscience, AI
As the history of this nascent discipline reveals, neuroscience has inspired advances in artificial intelligence, and AI has provided a testing ground for models in neuroscience…
