I’m Alexander Roidl – designer, artist, and media researcher based in Mainz / Frankfurt am Main. I work on creative websites / unusual media / software art and visual design. Currently, working as a Tandem-Professor at Mainz University of Applied Sciences and NODE. My research investigates the diverse implications of human-computer interaction with a focus on the creative use of software. My practice explores the intersection of programming, design, and software culture. I am regularly teaching workshops on creative coding, web technology and interaction design. I hold an MFA in Experimental Publishing from the Piet Zwart Institute in Rotterdam and a BA in Media Design from Hof University of Applied Sciences in Germany. From 2019 to 2022 I worked as a lecturer and researcher at the design department of The Hague University of Applied Sciences.

Arbeitsgruppe für außergewöhnliche Ein- und Ausgabemedien

The working group for unusual input and output media is a research project, that investigates processes, methods and tools that are not part of everyday design practice. From the intersection between coding and design, new possibilities for an experimental design practice are to be developed. Above all, the question of new interactions between humans and digital infrastructure are at the forefront of the research. The first series of lectures and workshops focused on the browser as an output medium. From structured data on the web to open source publications on the web and browser tools for hybrid printed matter. As a next step, the working group is currently planning a publication and exhibition on interaction with everyday technologies, such as RFID chips, photogrammetry, wifi networks, printers, 3D printers or web browsers.
