What is this space?
This website is my Ship of Theseus; a playground to organize my work and philosophy, grow as a communicator, and hopefully inspire others to do the same.
A formal, focused way to introduce myself would be something like this: “I am a Hungarian-British artist and researcher exploring transformative sound. I hold a PhD in biofeedback art meditation and have conducted postdoctoral research on inclusive film sound for visually impaired audiences.” A more relaxed one might sound like this: “I am trying to figure out how to live a meaningful life, and what seems to help is making art that has some kind of scientific structure.”
This website is an ongoing experiment where documenting my work helps me better understand my next steps. Since figuring out what a meaningful life is is clearly linked to more than just biofeedback art and film sound, I have been interested in various other topics which I bravely plan to dive into here in English and Hungarian.
For my music productions, DJ sets, experimental art, code and various social media profiles, find links in the footer at the bottom of this page. My academic résumé can be found on the CV page.
Now
I am currently working on research funding applications to continue my work with biofeedback meditation that can support sensemaking and mental health. This research is being developed for potential hosting at one of the universities I am affiliated with.
Following a 4.5-year postdoc on the Enhancing Audio Description project, I am a Research Affiliate at the University of York, where I also serve as a PhD mentor and Postdoctoral Representative. I am also a Visiting Fellow at the University of Essex, where I taught Navigating the Digital World for three years.
Since November 2025, I am a parent governor at my son’s junior school with responsibilities linked to special education needs and disabilities (SEND), mental health, and sustainability.

Milyen lekvár Dr. Csernus 'A Magyar' című könyve (2024)?
Most, hogy életem felét már lassan külföldön töltöm, néha próbálom a nemzeti identitásomat kutatni, talán gyógyítani is. Reméltem, hogy Csernus könyve segít majd. Segített is, de nem úgy, ahogy arra számítottam – és lehet, hogy pont ez volt az író terve: hogy konfrontálódjak néhány hülyeségemmel ... meg az övéivel. -
Expected more from 'A Little History of Poetry' by John Carey
After reaching out to my friend, who used to write English poetry, I received two books in the post from him. One was Carey's book, which we hoped would give me a crash course on poetry. In short, I liked it but also expected more; a broader overview and more insights on how and why schools or movements of poetry changed. Still, I learnt a lot. -
Metafiction and Beyond: 'Galilee' by Clive Barker
I found Barker's Weaveworld by chance around 20 years ago and loved it. This year, I read another of his works, Galilee, which had less fantasy and perhaps more romance. This review contains spoilers, so it's mainly for people who have read the book and want to compare notes. -
Conveying Cinematography Through Sound
This is a quick update on the work I have been doing as part of my research within the EAD team, where my focus has been on how to use sound to convey cinematographic elements. -
BARN Interview: My Journey into Biofeedback Art
Since last November, Anastasia Chernysheva (UCLA) and I have been co-creating the Biofeedback Art Research Network (BARN). We want to build a global network of people who study the connections between biofeedback and art. To get to know each other, I thought it would be best to interview people in writing. To demonstrate a potential narrative, I started with myself. -
20th Anniversary of Painting Sex, Drugs and Trance & Roll
On the 20th anniversary of my painting exhibition, I invite you on a nostalgic journey through my first solo show in Hungary — a collection of abstract paintings and drawings. Read about their stories back then and what they mean (to me) today. -

13 Years of Practicing and Teaching Creative Music Technology
This writeup reflects on my time practicing and teaching creative music technology (CMT) at the Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) in Cambridge between 2006 and 2019. I highlight my insights enriched with audio and video examples created by me or my students and conclude with a vision for a CMT course that addresses what I think was missing: a pathway teaching all production stages of electronic dance music (EDM). -
Trying to Find Order with a 42-hour Water Fast
How a 42-hour water fast helped kickstart the sequence of posts on this website? It made me remember that I need to be honest.
