Hi! I'm Ali, it seems like I need to professionally introduce myself here, so here I go: I'm a first year PhD student at EPFL in the EDIC program, where I'm fortunate to be advised by Amir Zamir at VILAB and co-advised by Sabine Susstrunk. Before that I completed my M.Sc. in Computational Science and Engineering at EPFL. And way before that I had the opportunity to do a research internship at Imperial College London with Deniz Gündüz.
In terms of research interests, I cannot exactly pinpoint one, but in general I'm interested in building a theoretical understanding of what reality is and how different representations of reality (e.g., different modalities) are related to each other.
I'm also very interested in creative coding, you can check out some of my work in the Creative Coding section below.
