Welcome.
This is a list of Tom De Smedt's main involvements.
I'm currently pursuing my PhD. on Artificial Creativity at the St.-Lucas School of Arts in Antwerp, Belgium, and working as a freelance programmer and graphic designer for Burocrazy. When I have time to spare I'm developing for NodeBox or collaborating on a computer game called City In A Bottle.
![]() | NodeBox : My main involvement. NodeBox is a Mac OS X application for graphic designers in which you use code instead of mouse-clicking and menus to design. My work includes the Linguistics, Web, Core Image, Bezier and SVG libraries, and the GDR module . |
| Gravital : In 2006 I wrote a research funding proposal for IWT (Institute for the Promotion of Innovation by Science and Technology in Flanders). This resulted in a project called Gravital, a NodeBox spin-off which we're now working on. The project is in collaboration with the department of Computer Linguistics at the University of Antwerp. |
| Articles : The texts that used to be on replica.trapdoor.be - humor, graphic design and meanderings into AI, psychology and philosophy. In collaboration with Tom Van Iersel. | |
| Mecca : An imaginary world written in hypertext form: descriptions can be linked and read in any order. A hobby that has been going on for far too long. | |
| Trapdoor : The old website, a chaotic mess of nostalgia. | |
News: I'll be giving lectures on my work in NodeBox and Gravital at the AI & Creativity conference at the Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen (22 may, The Netherlands) and The Agile Mind - creativity in Discourse and Art conference at the Koninklijke Academie Brussel (11 september, Belgium)
