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 and visual design for online publications.
In his long standing position, online design has evolved from layout and navigation design to application design. The most recent developments – what a treat to live through two media revolutions – put more emphasis on creating scalable content, either through natural interface solutions, or through generative remediation of the content itself, for reaching an audience getting more and more accustomed to personally tuned narratives.
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.
