Summary
👤
SeniorYufeng Zhao is a media artist and technologist with eight years of cross-disciplinary experience blending software engineering, HCI research, and experiential design. Currently a Graduate Research Assistant at MIT Media Lab’s Future Sketches group, he builds web-based, video, and tangible installations that probe data, imagery/language processing, and human–machine interactions. His background spans industry roles as a creative technologist and senior software engineer at Brilliant.org and research positions at CMU’s HCI Institute, where he developed VR experiments and experiential prototypes for next-generation networks. Trained in both computer science and interactive media (NYU Shanghai, CMU, MIT), Yufeng is as fluent in real-time graphics and TouchDesigner-driven systems as he is in designing measurable user studies. He often surfaces unexpected cultural-technical connections by turning experimental prototypes into communicable insights for engineers and designers.
