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.

Web Hacking Studio

»Web Hacking Studio« is a course as much as a tutorial as it is a question: how can we as designers engage critically with the web? In the course, web elements were modularly repurposed as design elements, creating critical browser plugins that engage with the web as material for reflection. web-hacking.studio kd.hs-mainz.de/project/web-hacking-studio/
