Born in Israel and raised partially in East Asia, I have been lucky to travel and live in many countries around the world. Trained in both computer science and design, my professional identity centers around bridging the two worlds. I currently live in Los Angeles and enjoy building interactive works around the topic of ‘news’, exploring ways to enhance viewer's feeling of connection to the viewed content. My recent projects can be seen at http://giladlotan.com, and I may be reached at giladlotan -at- gmail -dot- com
