Ahmed Jamal:
Born in Cairo in 1992. A masters student at Interface Cultures at Kunstuniversität Linz, Austria. Earned a bachelor’s degree in architectural engineering & environmental studies from AASTMT in Cairo, Egypt, in 2016. My interests revolve around using various mediums to facilitate interactive solutions that bridge the gap between humans and technology. I enjoy turning stagnant spaces into dynamic ones by amalgamating diverse disciplines. I have a passion for urban art and fostering interaction in public spaces. My goal is to explore innovative user-friendly approaches and techniques that can be applied in the real world.
Till Schönwetter:
Till Schönwetter is a new media artist whose work turns technical systems into sites of play, contradiction, and critique. Trained in landscape painting, he now builds interactive installations and digital environments that move between fiction and function. His experiments with algorithms and interfaces often fold into loops and contradictions—misbehaving just enough to stay alive. Through this friction, his practice unfolds as a romantic, playful questioning of technological inevitability.
