Paul Heinicker

Bio:

• Hi, my name is Paul. I’m a research associate at the Interaction Design Lab in Potsdam and I currently write my PhD thesis. I received my MA in (Interaction) Design from FH;P in 2015 with distinction.

  I’m interested in visual culture and how visual artefacts shape the way we see and understand our society. On my blog post data I especially write about the culture and politics of visualisations.

  Abstract Summary:

  Alt’ai is a simulation inspired by the rich aesthetics, landscapes, and cultural practices of a remote mountain region. As a self-generating repository of unique snapshots capturing instances of interaction among the simulation agents, it provides an instrumental reference for the development of future machine-to-machine authentication protocols.
