Hello! My name is Vera van de Seyp. I am a designer / creative coder with great interest in typography, languages and artificial intelligence.
Currently based in Amsterdam, I work for clients as well as autonomously, and recently graduated from the Master’s program Media Technology at the Leiden University. I also teach Digital Media at the Graphic Design department of ArtEZ. In my work, I explore new technologies, digital tools and fields in media where boundaries are still blurry and yet to be defined.
Projects vary from playful websites, to live data-scraping installations, from perpetually morphing typefaces, to critical browser extensions, from national flag generators, to a smart IOT generator that tweets about its own inventions, from a blank map to a poster-shaped set of rules.
