3.3.2.1. Disciplinary background of the participants
The students represented different fields of design (sometimes combined with other backgrounds). All students were doing their first year of their Masters program at the Piet Zwart Institute Rotterdam, in the department of media design. In collage 12, the participants of the workshop are represented in the aRt&D Trangle. Sasson Kung (1. collage 12) has a background in graphic design and installation art. Cheryl Gallaway (2. collage 12) has a background as fashion and media designer. Dragana Antic (3. collage 12) has a university background in architecture design. Tsila Hassine (4. collage 12) has a background in mathematics and computer science / media design. Stock (5. collage 12) has an electro- technical, sound and music background. Simon de Bakker (6. collage 12) has a background in art and technology. Kristina Andersen (7. collage 12) has a background in media art and interaction design. The workshop leaders reflected the disciplines engaged in the interdisciplinary collaboration in a general sense; design, art and technology were represented in different variations, while the whole project was supervised by an educator and lab manager, the latter were not included in the aRt&D Triangle as they did not engage in the collaboration.
