Summary
Sun C is a multidisciplinary simulation artist, computational designer, and AI engineer with 13 years of experience blending front-end engineering, UX design, and research-driven prototyping. Based in Cambridge and currently affiliated with MIT Media Lab and Microsoft, Sun has led projects that apply LLMs and Azure AI to evidence-based decision making and helped world leaders prototype AI products at Azure AI Foundry. Their background spans production front-end work on Dynamics and PowerBI to designing tangible AI experiences in the Tangible Media Group, reflecting a rare mix of product-grade engineering and experimental research. Sun’s creative practice—summed up on GitHub as "Dreaming Electric Sheep at MIT"—signals an interest in speculative, art-forward AI systems that inform real-world interfaces. Notably, they’ve also moonlighted as a bike mechanic, an indication of hands-on, pragmatic problem solving beyond software. This combination of studio sensibility, enterprise impact, and research rigor positions Sun to bridge art, design, and AI productization.
