Hi! I am Arnab.
✨ I design, build, perform & write ✨
I am…
An inter-disciplinary designer and creative technologist working with physical and digital affordances that we take for granted to create new reconfigurations between humans. Over the past decade, my work has taken me from designing software apps, systems, and services to programming interactive installations, objects, and immersive theatrical productions.
Recently…
- Consulting on immersive experiences, AI tools, and creative technology projects across immersive theater, research labs, and community organizations.
- Created J.E.S.S., an interactive museum installation at The Higgins Bedford exploring how AI models interpret and stereotype people.
- Shaping the future of haptic-enabled surgical training in my role as Principal Designer at FundamentalVR.
- Building a video game that sheds light on how AI depends on human labor from the global south, as a recipient of the Mozilla Creative Media Award 2023 grant.
-
As a designer-in-residence at Ownpath, I am designing the student experience of their Product Design Fellowship to make it scalable and repeatable. -
Designing and programming an arcade game as a part of Shall make; Shall be: a curatorial project for creating playable artworks themed around the Bill of Rights. -
Designing+programming a children’s storybook using machine learning and augmented reality as a part of BeFantastic.in “Together” fellowship.
