I am the area head for physical computing courses at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) in the Tisch School of the Arts. In these courses, I teach programming and electronics as tools for art and design, starting with how to sense and respond to human physical expression.

My research interests also include networks, lighting design, the environmental and social impacts of technology development, clocks, and monkeys. I am a co-founder of Arduino, and hope to visit Svalbard and Antarctica someday.

This site features the work I’ve done since I joined the full-time faculty at ITP since 2001. For the summary version, here is my CV.
