To whom it may concern;

We live in a temporary society that permanently struggles with ignoring the pressing issues of outnumbered groups by focusing on its own selfish agenda.

    Taking any opportunity to educate myself, I am passionate about social rights, stand for systemic change and am not afraid to fight unfair structures to achieve this.

    While I am well-versed in many mediums, most of my current work focuses on creating an experience through experimental digital crafts. Specifically, I enjoy combining digital with physical arts, thus creating a hybrid project which usually involves a satirical (albeit serious) twist.

    Through my previous (listed) projects, you may notice an overarching theme of questioning different ways of thinking and dissecting society’s blind obedience.

Proudly questioning ethics and actively not belonging.

    - Ruud van der Kant

Wea’ve Activated

︎︎︎ rotterdam, 12/21

With our project we want the novice creative inspiration to embrace technological developments in art and to use them to find their individuality. We want to communicate this idea by means of an installation in order to enthuse the target group through an experience.

Anti “Hero”

︎︎︎ rotterdam, 01/23

We are being driven into an individualistic society in which we are losing the importance of helping and respecting others in shared spaces. Thus, we wanted to approach the dehumanization of the antisocial individual.

We created an anti-influencer that will reflect the behaviour in a satire and over-exaggerating way and hoped to start a movement that will tell people on their behaviour.

Small Dick Society

︎︎︎ rotterdam, 04/22

Questioning the ethics of NFT + a design reaction on the NFT movement.

Off Track

︎︎︎ rotterdam, 06/22

A project to go against the systems overpriced public transport. We created an insurance to support our locals.

Over the past twenty years the price of train tickets has increased over 23%. That makes the Netherlands one of the most expensive countries of the world when it comes to public transportation. While public transport should be the best option for traveling (considering the environment). The government is making this impossible by increasing the prices every year.

If they don’t give us the chance to travel, we will do it OFF TRACK
