Robin Verdegaal is a designer.

Or so they say at VPRO, a progressive dutch public broadcaster with an extensive track record in online publishing, an organization that attracts many passionate and talented makers. In cooperation with them, Robin’s role consists of equal parts conceptualization, interaction design and visual design for online storytelling.

Online design has gradually evolved from layout and navigation design to full application design. The most recent developments – what a treat to live through two media revolutions – put more emphasis on scalable content, either through natural interface solutions, or through generative remediation of the subject. The new challenge will be tuning your narrative to appeal to an audience getting more and more accustomed to personalized communication. 

Robin Verdegaal is a photographer.

But he’s an amateur. In the most literal sense of the word. When digital photography took off, Robin started to bring a camera along on art and architecture trips. The solid theoretical and technological foundations may not be there, but photography has become as much a hobby as designing creative solutions for online storytelling still is.
