r e M A R K S f r o m h o m e

Since 2003 I've been incidentally involved as a (guest)teacher and/or advisor at various academies, such as KABK, ArtEZ,St.Joost,Wdka and GAFA,China.

Since 2011 I've embraced design education as my main practice. Since april 2012 I've become course director of the Graphic Design Dept. of the Willem de Kooning Academy, Rotterdam, together with my collegue Mark Mulder. My other activities for the WdKA include teaching Media Design, co-developing the new curriculum for project-based education, coordinating the Minors Public Space, acting as an external advisor at Designskole Kolding,DK and more.

Some examples of recent and future topics that I'm interested in addressing in the curriculum are: Media in Public/Urban Space; The New Reading Experience(E-pubs and books in the digital realm); Datavisualization; Selftracking; Free and Open Source Culture; Design Fiction;
