Full Bio

Agoston Nagy was born in 1981 in Budapest, Hungary. He is an artist and researcher specializing in algorithmic art, creating work with free and open-source tools. Nagy designs dynamic systems and interfaces for networked installations and also develops creative mobile applications. His interests include cognitive computing and embodied experience, data visualization and sonification, and the role of computational culture in various social contexts.

As a co-founder of the experimental new media design group Binaura, he creates interactive environments and poetic AI-driven machines through open-source tools and shared code practices. He regularly leads workshops and develops courses on algorithmic art, creative coding, and machine learning. Nagy is a guest lecturer at Moholy-Nagy University of Design and Arts (MOME, Hungary) and a human-computer interaction researcher at Prezi.com.

His research explores grassroots communities, decentralized networks, and resilience within and beyond the liminal web. His work has been exhibited worldwide, including in China, India, Canada, Germany, Italy, Norway, Poland, the United States, Belgium, and Hungary. Nagy has also exhibited at institutions such as MIT, ZKM Karlsruhe, Ludwig Museum Budapest, and the Mutek Festival.

Nagy’s art investigates the intersection of technology and natural phenomena, blending code, physical installations, and sound to create immersive experiences that challenge perceptions of digital and physical realities.
