ABRA
2022-Ongoing
ABRA (Artificial Biology, Robotics and Art) is a 3 year long project aimed to address innovation and renewal of education by developing transdisciplinary higher education methods that bridge the arts and sciences for enhanced sustainability, specialising in the fields of artificial biology, robotics, and art. It is an Erasmus Mundus project ultimately aimed at creating a joint Master's Programme.
I am the assistant producer/social media manager of ABRA. I help manage the project website, as well as its many social media sites, together with helping plan and manage meetings, together with schedules, supplies and logistics for the workshops we hold every couple months for the project.
This is James
2022
This is James is a disruptive interactive fiction / visual novel. James will live his daily wage slave life the only way he knows how, but you, as the player, have a chance to change things in the world around him to perhaps goad him into a happier (or sadder!) end. In a journey of trial and error, poke around to find out the many ways in which you can change the way James' life unfolds.
I joined the team of This is James as its producer. I helped plan out the scope of the game base don the time constraints, helped people separate into departments based on what they wanted to work on and their strengths, and planned and managed the 4 sprints through which the game was developed, as well as managed the Discord server for clearer documentation and communication in the group and managed and programmed the Trello page to help the team check on tasks and status easier.
Games Now!
2020-2021
Games Now! is an open lecture series on the dominant topics and emerging trends in games. The topics are curated in collaboration with Finland’s game industry veterans and top companies. The lecture series are run by Aalto University, and is open for anyone to attend. Being enrolled to a school is not required to join.
I was one of the two graphic designers and brand managers for the project during the 2020-2021 season. I helped redesign the image of the brand based on what the brand owner felt was fitting, and helped make decisions for the future of the brand during the Covid-19 pandemic.
