Biography

Daan Veerman is a designer, researcher, writer and curator fascinated by the places and spaces where new technologies and humans meet. This culminates in projects that either focus on finding one’s self within larger infrastructural systems and industries such as the Internet, or in projects that focus on redeveloping novel production techniques as crafts in order to bring a “human” hand back into the produced artefacts.

His work is displayed in exhibitions and museums, and was recently acquired for their permanent collection by the Design Museum in Gent, Belgium. 

*Currently, Daan is enrolled at the Master Non-Linear Narrative at the Royal Academy of Arts in the Hague, where he is studying how (fiction) writing can be integrated into his design practice in order to sketch and simulate future societies.
