Hello, I'm David Cardona. I am an educator, designer, audio specialist, and interdisciplinary media artist working at the intersection of interactivity, sound, computation, and accessible design. I also release electronic music under the name 28 Lines.

I design responsive environments and immersive experiences, especially in the form of interactive installations. My work tends to bridge audiovisual systems, physical computing, immersive audio, computer vision, 3D graphics, lights, reactive interfaces, and accessible practices. Two notable examples are Tree of Life and Echo Nexus, both featured at the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden for the Sound Scene Festival in 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Beyond my artistic practice, I am an Assistant Professor in the Electronic Production and Design Department at Berklee College of Music, where I teach interactive installation design, game audio, circuit bending, physical computing, and music production.

I have shared my work through talks and presentations at events and institutions such as TEDxBerklee, MIT, Northeastern University, the ACM SIGGRAPH Conference, the AES AI Symposium, and the Berklee ABLE Assembly. Since 2025, I have also served as a paper reviewer for the International Computer Music Conference (ICMC).

Before shifting deeply into interactive media, I spent years producing, mixing, and engineering music across rock, jazz, electronica, and world genres through my independent studio, Sound Architect. I've been fortunate to collaborate with artists such as John Patitucci, Matthew Nicholl, Oscar Stagnaro, and Fabián Gallón, and my work on Bombino's album Deran contributed to a Grammy nomination in the Best World Music Album category.

I completed a Master's Degree in Digital Media Design from Harvard Extension School, where I focused on programming, computer vision, 3D modeling, and game development, and I previously completed a dual major in Electronic Production and Design and Contemporary Writing and Production at Berklee.

I built this website to bring together the different facets of my practice. If you have questions, ideas, or projects that you would like to explore together, I'd love to hear from you.
