My name is Hilary Knight, and I'm a Senior Consultant at AEA Consulting. And my guest today is Daniel Iregui. He is a Montreal-based digital artist who creates interactive sculptures, immersive spaces, and architectural interventions using technology as both a tool and an aesthetic.
Daniel founded the digital art studio, Studio Iregular, in 2010. Studio Iregular creates audio visual installations, large scale sculptures, architectural projections, and scenographies with a focus on interactive and immersive experiences. At the crossroads between art and technology, their works experiment with light, sound, and typography using mathematics, algorithms, AI, and machine learning.
So welcome, Daniel. It's really great to be speaking to you today.
