An artist by training, Yu Zhang finished her PhD in 2017 on the theory and artistic practice of interactive technologies for public, large-scale installations. She approaches visual art with mixed reality installations and projections, sensor-based interactives, and computational arts. She roots her artistic intent in the symbolism of Asian traditions and transforms the artistic unpacking of drama and cultural signifiers into experiences of interactivity and connectivity that ultimately bridge artistic expression and audience experience. She uses systems design toolkit, to realize a complex multifaceted experience playing with the spatiotemporal context of the audience's interaction with the installations when digital and physical converge. Starting from interactivity, she constructs layers of different connections between artist, artwork, audience, and the environment to express how far such connectivity can impact and reshape the structure and relations of objects, space, and time within a dynamic audience experience. Apart from her artistic research and practice, Yu's teaching experiences cover over ten years and a board space including traditional classrooms and design-led project-based learning activities.

Mathias Funk is Associate Professor in the Future Everyday group in the Department of Industrial Design at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). He has a background in Computer Science and a PhD in Electrical Engineering (from Eindhoven University of Technology). His research interests include complex systems design, remote data collection, systems for musical expression, and design tools such as domain-specific languages and integrated development environments. In the past he has worked in research positions at ATR Japan, RWTH Aachen and he has been Visiting Researcher at Philips Consumer Lifestyle, The Netherlands. He is also the co-founder of UXsuite, a high-tech spin-off from Eindhoven University of Technology. He has years of experience in software architecture and design, engineering of distributed systems, and web technologies. Further areas of interest and practice are domain-specific languages and code generation, sound and video processing systems, and data and information visualization approaches. He has been involved extensively in the business side of innovation, the transfer of research to commercial products, and he loves to think about a design's real world impact. As a teacher, he teaches various technology-oriented courses in the Industrial Design curriculum about designing with data and visualization approaches, systems design and technologies for connected products and systems. He is regularly invited to give international workshops on large-scale interactive systems, group music improvisation interfaces and expressive (musical) interaction. He has been an active musician for years, and is very interested in the intersection of music, art, and design in particular. Mathias Funk is a senior member of the ACM.

張瑜是一位受過藝術訓練的藝術家，於2017年獲得博士學位，研究方向為公共、大型裝置的互動技術理論和藝術實踐。她通過混合現實裝置和投影、基於感應器的互動裝置和計算藝術來探索視覺藝術。她將藝術意圖根植於亞洲傳統的象徵主義中，將戲劇和文化符號的藝術解構轉化為互動和連接的體驗，最終搭起了藝術表達和觀眾體驗之間的橋樑。她使用系統設計工具包，實現了一種複雜多面的體驗，當數字和物理交匯時，與觀眾互動的裝置在時空背景中發揮作用。從互動性出發，她構建了藝術家、藝術品、觀眾和環境之間不同連接的層次，以表達這種連接性對動態觀眾體驗中的物體、空間和時間結構和關係的影響和重塑程度。除了藝術研究和實踐外，張瑜還有十多年的教學經驗，包括傳統課堂和以設計為導向的項目學習活動。
