Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEric Forman is a New York–based founder and interactive artist who blends fine art, design, performance, and science into slow, hauntingly thoughtful responsive installations and kinetic sculptures. With over a decade leading Eric Forman Studio and earlier founding Klank Studios, he crafts bespoke interactive experiences and advanced fabrication for artists, architects, and scientists. A longtime educator and former Head of Innovation for SVA’s Interaction Design MFA, he has shaped curricula and mentored students across RISD, Columbia, Parsons, Pratt, and MICA. Trained at NYU ITP and Vassar, where his undergraduate thesis pioneered VR’s philosophical implications, he pairs deep theoretical curiosity with hands-on technical fluency dating back to early web-media work in the 1990s. He also co-founded BioArt New York, bridging biology and art in unusual collaborations, and quietly sustains his practice by commuting around the city by bike.
