this month's resident:
Emil Woudenberg

For the past 4 years, we’ve been giving £500 a month to a creative in the UK. Grant #056 goes to Emil Woudenberg whose work you can see below.

-> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> EMIL’S BIO -> ->

Emil Woudenberg is a 33-year-old queer trans artist and designer originally from Toronto, now based in London. Since 2016, Emil has operated under Strike Design Studio, designing brands, websites, and printed materials. Emil Woudenberg developed an audiobook for SuperHi titled The Website Owner’s Manual, a do-it-yourself guide for creating independent, queer, de-platformed, or decentralized websites. In 2023, Emil created a website hosting server called SDS Server with support from the School for Poetic Computation. That same year, during a residency with Montez Press and a presentation at Mesh Festival, Emil wrote a semi-speculative poetic fiction exploring the Dead Internet Theory and the potential for automated bots to evolve into radicalized computer comrades. In 2025, Emil is set to release Rich Text, a project presenting ten curated works examining the interface of the rich text editor, funded by the Ontario Arts Council. Emil has previously collaborated with institutions such as Temple Contemporary, Sam Fox School, The Bentway, MOCA Toronto, and Art Metropole. Their research residencies include Ukai, Montez Press, SuperHi, Trinity Square Video, Digital Justice League, MOCA, and Whippersnapper Gallery. Emil frequently hosts workshops for artists, including Mind the Platform at Inventory Art Book Fair, On Becoming Bots & Bugs at Hackers and Designers, Decentralized Publishing for London Pattern Club, and a reading of bot4bot during Mesh Festival at the House of Electronic Arts Basel. Emil is also a current recipient of the Somerset House Exchange Bursary.
