ABOUT ME
I have spent two decades living in different places and navigating different jungles—from art, to cryptoeconomic algorithms to the literal, overgrown thickets of an abandoned olive farm. As an Austrian, with Iranian roots, I now live in Portugal where I work on the intersection of technology, agriculture, art & social science.
Between 2004 and 2015, under my alter ego "kamikatse." I created a series of artworks, performances, and digital mutterings, started an art collective and organized an underground music festival in the desert of Iran. Between 2015 and 2025, I went down the crypto rabbit hole.

CRYPTOTen years of cryptoeconomic obsession later, in 2026, I stumbled back into the beautiful chaos of art both actively and passively—though I have to say that the split between “art” and “crypto” is an external fiction. Inside my brain and my soul, it was all the same creative process: the perception, composition, decomposition, and recomposition of thoughts, patterns, and complex systems. The artistic process is about creation, reinvention, and reframing—which is exactly what I did when launching BlockchainHub in Berlin and the Research Institute for Cryptoeconomics in Vienna, writing three editions of Token Economy, or reclaiming an abandoned olive farm in Portugal. They are all gestures of the same alchemy.
I am currently working on two immersive and site specific installation, Money Patterns & Iranian Graffiti. I also decided to open the space on my farm in Portugal to other artists, and have launched an Artist in Residency as well as a Curator in Residency program.
