Dennis graduated in June'07 as an Interactive Media designer at the Willem de Kooning Art Academy, in Rotterdam. In June'09 he completed the master-course Media Design at the Piet Zwart Institute, also in Rotterdam. Currently he is the curator for the art program at the Rotterdam based Triphouse record store, working for Net.art pioneers JODI, chairman of the Institute for Applied Theory and form a duo with Veredeld Behang. His work is inspired by everyday life. Associations made between everyday objects and media result in hybrid forms and 'new media'. Recognizable but subtle and clever. His work focusses on: consuming design/design interventions/questionable design.
