My name is Florian Born and I am a Berlin based creative technologist. I work on projects at the intersection of art, design and technology. Towards this goal, I like to work in teams, think in systems and incorporate modularity and adaptability in my projects. I am driven by the curiosity to program my own software tools, develop circuit boards for electronics, construct and visualize ideas in 3D software and bring them on the other side of the screen using manufacturing methods like CNC-Milling, 3D printing or other rapid manufacturing methods.
Currently I work as a creative technologist & engineer at PCH Innovations, a Berlin based technology development studio.
