Media art production and multimedia system design

Working on Acksetron Kusanagi, the software for The Library is on Fire in the Luma Tower, 2021

Erik Axel Eggeling is a creative technologist who is interested in building and preserving art and media installations with complex technological requirements.

From here on I will continue in first person: I am currently based in Basel/Milan and available for remote or on site freelance work through my studio Minimal Logic. I am excited to work with artists, agencies, studios and institutions from the initial concept to execution and long-term operation of projects.

Technically, I am specialized in programming in Python within the TouchDesigner framework, an node-based visual programming environment. Furthermore, I have experience with a wide range of technologies which makes me confident that I can tackle projects at any level of ambition.

I have held workshops and courses, such as a course in interactive art at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Lucerne and workshops in TouchDesigner for beginners at the Basel Academy of Art and Design. I was also part of the artistic direction of the 2024 Mesh Festival, curating the program for the conference Tooling in Production.

Between 2019 and 2024, I worked at iart in Basel, a studio known for its pioneering work in media architectures. I have a B.Sc in civil engineering from Lund University and a master’s degree in Architectural Lighting Design from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.
