Me

Tobi Kauer

Creative Technologist

I combine my engineering background with a designer’s perspective to translate complex technologies into tangible, participatory experiences. My practice brings together hands-on prototyping, multimedia creation, and critical inquiry to explore how emerging technologies shape - and can be reshaped by - society. Working across disciplines, I develop projects and immersive experiences that invite participation and foster critical reflection.
