About
Hello! I am Skye Gao. I am learning to make more stuffs.
Background
Skye is a creative technologist, designer, and multi-disciplinary artist. She holds a B.Sc in Interactive Media Arts from NYU Shanghai, and is currently pursuing a Master of Design Studies degree with a concentration in medium/technology at Harvard Graduate of Design.
Skye’s research and creative endeavors encompass a wide spectrum, including interactive technology, computational art, and speculative design. Her primary focus lies in investigating the intricate and dynamic relationship amongst human beings, non-human beings, and their surrounding environments. She delves into the realm of responsive environments, human-machine interaction, and recently bio-inspired design and arts to examine how technology transforms experiences and understanding from a more-than-human perspective. Furthermore, through her interactive media art practice, Skye seeks to visually and conceptually articulate profound contemporary concerns, such as the juxtaposition of life and death in the digital era, while critically reflecting on the (post)human condition and its implications.
