Evolution of my interests

↓ Study of Centralization

Focus on systems of planning and governance under centralized structures of power — authoritarian regimes rooted in ideologies (fascism, communism), modernist absolutism and resulting cognitive dissonance and spatial distortions.

↓ Spatial Distortions & System Science

Spatial system distortions — fragmentation, dispersion, dissociation, polarization, entropy, voids. Focus on problem solving in the operational layer of spaces.

↓ Higher Order of Space & System Interfaces

Spatial mechanisms as projections of higher order of space residing in the systemic layers of spatial reality. Study of interfaces where informational spaces and physical spaces meet.

↓ Blockchain Technology & Decentralization

Developing expertise in new systems rooted in decentralization and distribution. Ubiquitous technology, intelligent systems, digital realm. Examination of the centralized <> decentralized spectrum of operations.

↓ Extended Reality & Meta-Systems

Working with blockchain-based applications, spatial system concepts in Web3 sphere — synthetic environment of Extended Reality, Metaverse and virtual ecosystems. Developing system interfacing and interoperability between virtual and physical reality.

Experience

10+ years of experience working in spatial development (design, research, strategy). I held assistant, associate, lead and directorial positions, and cooperated on projects globally (USA, UK, Canada, UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Germany, Russia, Sweden etc.).

Currently I work with tech companies, bridging spatial development with XR systems and applications.
