Jani Ruotsalainen

Facilitators of the retrospective

Having worked in the IT sector as his day job since the early 2000s, Jani Ruotsalainen is a digital artist. While his day job keeps him anchored in modern systems, in his free time, the computer becomes a pure medium of creation, generating visual, auditory, and code-based art. His works are a deep dive into the history and phenomena of information technology, with a strong love for the demoscene and 1980s and 1990s computers beating at their core. The art serves as a bridge between the bits of the past and today's technology fatigue, reminding us of where the entire digital revolution began.
