Since the summer of 2024, I have been working with Instance BV as a researcher and designer. In this role, I independently conducted on-site LiDAR scans, developed conceptual and visual presentations, and contributed to the conference materials for Re-energizing the City: PlanScapeArch Conference 2024. I integrated LiDAR data with architectural and cinematic frameworks, positioning the project at the intersection of urban design, digital media and speculative visualisation.
Collaborator: Emilio Baglietto, Jacopo Buongiorno, Matteo Bucci, Ruaridh Macdonald, and William Stewart, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Nuclear Science and Engineering); Gary Anthony and Douglas McDonald, GE VERNOVA (Nuclear Engineering); Shonn Mills and Sebastian Wood, Whitby Wood (Structural Engineering); Alessandro Balducci and Rocco Valentines, Nome-Studio (Digital Visualisation)

Building on this, I worked with Iain Macdonald at Instance BV to develop and lead a LiDAR-based urban perception concept, extending the research into La Biennale di Venezia 2025. I collaborated closely with the film production team, contributing to both the moving-image work and the analytical diagrams, translating complex spatial datasets into a coherent visual and narrative sequence.
