Peggy Sylopp UX Engineer

about me

My name is Peggy Sylopp, I help with your new product and service design with IT know-how and artistic creativity.

​

I am a computer scientist as well as an audiovisual artist with a Master’s degree in public policy and eleven years of experience as a speaker and teacher. In my work, I combine UX engineering, deep tech, communication expertise and artistic creativity.

​

I primarily work independently, initiating projects and raising funds for them with a focus on solving social and individual problems, often on an open source basis. I occasionally join institutions that hire me for the duration of a project.

​

Over the last few years, I have led a scientific project on participatory health research in which users tested individualized hearing aids in everyday situations.

​

In this context, I invented a process for individualized hearing amplification based on the sound adaptation behavior of users as well as on artificial intelligence. 

​

My vision is to make technology more accessible, especially for disadvantaged people, such as older people, disabled people, girls, newcomers and young people with low levels of education.

​

I know there are still many problems that need to be solved. Technology can make a big difference in helping to do so if it is used in a specific, needs-based manner.

Users already know everything about the product they want.

TALKS&TEACHING

2010-2018

Creative Teaching after School Curriculum

I taught computer science and mathematics on a part-time basis for secondary level I and II students between the ages of 12 to 17 according to the regular school curriculum, but with the innovative learning theories of the private school Evangelische Schule Berlin Zentrum. I began there in 2010 with the foundation and management of the media lab, setting up and creating hands-on guidelines for teaching IT at the school.

ARTISITICAL RESEARCH

Since 2000

Artistical Researches and Photographing

My practice of photographing and documenting my artistic research and actions began in the 1990s, long before I was invited e.g. to Brazil by the Goethe Institute in Porto Allegre in 2015.
