DuKode Studio

DuKode Studio is a Brooklyn-based creative team emerging from the partnership of Ilias Koen and Arlene Ducao. They focus on inventively transposing data into both virtual and physical representations. A recipient of the MIT Ida Green Fellowship, Ducao is currently pursuing her Master's in the MIT Media Lab's Information Ecology group. Koen is a member of the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop and the Greenwich House Pottery Studio, and holds a BFA from the Athens School of Fine Art in Greece.

DuKode has collaborated with non-profits, think tanks, artists, educational publishers, pop stars, government agencies, scientists, and sociologists. Their current project, the MindRider helmet, uses a helmet with EEG sensors and a mobile connection to map the most stressful areas of a rider's journey. In 2011, DuKode and programmer Rachel Mersky worked with Slought and its collaborators to code the online presence for Fairytale Project.
