Aaron Alden is a Brooklyn-based interdisciplinary artist and creative director who has been working at the experimental edge of emerging media for over three decades.
His work explores the dynamic interplay between art, technology, and human experience—creating "resonant pixels and waves" though synesthetic interaction, generative, aleatory seeds and cascading data streams.
Originally an abstract painter, Aaron blends traditional artistic techniques with next-generation creative technology, including photogrammetry, coding, custom software, and microprocessors, to craft interactive light art installations, videos, and printed works.
Beyond his artistic practice, Aaron has decades of experience as a creative director in design and advertising. He has launched multiple industry-leading multimedia studios, served as a creative technology consultant, and collaborated with some of the world’s largest brands, agencies, and entertainment companies. His award-winning work spans art installations, immersive experiences, music videos, podcasts, Super Bowl commercials, obscure films, and everything inbetween. As a composer, he has produced four albums and created original scores for films and car commercials.
Aaron's latest interest is in developing new methods of using collected data to create infinitely evolving digital and physical works.
This year, Aaron’s work has been exhibited at The Lincoln Center, The Walker Art Center, and numerous NYC art fairs and exhibitions.
