d.End

Arnout, Hanna and Zane are MSc Media Technology students from Leiden University. Arnout (24) graduated Information Science in the Netherlands, Hanna (26) Audiovisual Media in Germany and Zane (24) Political Science in Latvia. All interested in philosophical aspects of technology they have collaborated also on other projects within their program but this is the first time all three have worked together. Previous projects involve works of interactive installations, digital music based board game, scientific fashion (www.pinkscience.nl) and stereotypes in online social networks. The different backgrounds of the members of the multinational artistgroup result in a variety not only between but also within the projects implemented.
