Max Scheidl I Multidisciplinary Designer

This is a Test

Obsessed with our ever changing world.
Uncovering structures and values at hand.
Illustrating possible futures.
Forging actions for today.

Coming from a family working in theater, I am not afraid to get my hands dirty, sit beside strangers wearing a mask, climb a fountain to get a nice shot of a demonstration or learn how to operate an 80s knitting machine. I am up for any challenge the weirder the better...

From 3D modeling, programming, mocking up prototypes to rendering or filming slick images I offers a little bit of everything, but if I happen to get hold of a graphic tablet or a pencil I will lose track of time and happy sketch at my desk for hours and hours…

We are facing increased difficulties and challenges in accelerated times of uncertain futures. Current social, political, technological, economical and ecological developments such as artificial intelligence, automation, climate change, infowars and ... are rapidly changing our world. Rarely being reflected on with a critical point of view before being developed, founded, sold, implied, shared, spread, liked, accepted and/or corrupted.

Through my practice I am aiming to create services, tools, tactics, objects, campaigns, strategies, imagery and films so that new audiences can participate and act on these important topics. Working on such complex issues proves to be challenging, therefore I want to listen to your thoughts, incorporate your expertise and understand your viewpoint to create possible futures that we have forged together!
