"I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones. " -John Cage
Hi I'm Heni, a junior web developer and interdisciplinary artist. I did a full-stack training at the Y-Combinator backed program, Strive School where we developed applications from the basics: HTML, CSS, and Javascript to full deployment with the MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, NodeJs) stack. Directly after, I worked for Decentraland building an application for selling virtual pieces of art on the blockchain where I helped to build the frontend with react reusable components. Overall, the team researched and implemented such services as Web3, Netki, MetaMask, Ropsten/Ethereum Smart Contracts, Auth0, and Stripe.

Choreographer, Dancer, Creative Director, Co-founder Berlin / Lisboa / San Francisco
StratoFyzika is an international collective that creates mind-altering performance experiences through a hybrid of new media, dance theater, and spatial soundscapes. Our research is inspired by the findings of computer science, technology and the natural sciences, data protection and man/machine boundaries. The evolution of the collective has been an ongoing conceptual and technological curiosity which drove them to seek and curate collaborations with creative coders and sound artists in creative laboratories where movement and technology are examined through experimentation across mediums (such as working with sensors and their data).
