Hi, I'm Vi Quan!

I'm an interaction designer who enjoys making things that are both meaningful and fun.

P5JS Real-time Mouse/ Touch Interactive

I learned about P5JS and creative coding in the course Parametric Design taught by Prof. Dr. Sebastian Meier at FH Potsdam and found it fascinating.

Growing up with a passion for dancing and music, through my time spent in Taiwan for an exchange semester, experiencing the dance culture as well as taking part in the courses at National University of Technology Taipei (NTUT), I'm inspired by the idea of integrating visual design in real-time performance and installation.

Therefore, I created interactive p5.js projects that blend coding, performance, and audience interaction, and I’ve had the chance to bring some of them on stage.

Interactive Programming Design: Pizza Box

This project was created within the course Interactive Programming Design, taught by Tz-Heng Fu at NTUT, Taiwan.

I learned how to approach application development, in this context, a game—from a software engineering perspective. I gained hands-on experience building character controls, dialogs and inventory systems, state machines, and class diagrams.

It was my first time building such complex game from scratch. While it was challenging, it provided invaluable learning for me as an interaction designer.

O-Ran Mixed Reality Experience

Components Sandbox

Learning by Doing. This Open Radio Access Network Demo in Mixed Reality visually simulates the complex network testing processes, enabling interactive and intuitive exploration of technical system interactions for both experts and non-experts.

Technical Demos at i14y Lab

During my one-year experience at i14y Lab, Deutsche Telekom, a consortium focused on Open Radio Networks, both as internship and working student,

I developed several technical demos: Augmented Reality, Physical-Digital interfaces, Touch Screens, animation...

I was able to develop skills in different creative approaches that fit the assignment—using game engines, web design, 3D rendering, motion, animation, and video editing.

Overall purpose: bring the topic of Open Radio Access closer to the audience. This inspired my Bachelor Thesis.

Optimize_ The Workshop

A participatory workshop on "Societal Pressure for Self-Optimization"

Together, we explore the causes and dynamics of the pressure to constantly improve ourselves.

We then co-create ideas for fostering an environment that supports healthy personal growth.

In collaboration with Annika Ehritt, Yette Shira Strauss Suhr, Luka Saje.

Birdie Sound Board

Birdie is a conceptualized musical instrument and social game designed to support physical mobility in seniors.

It uses tactile modules and playful interaction to promote movement, cognition, and a sense of safety.
Designed as a submission for the Rimowa Design Award, which I was honored to be chosen as an participant.
Created in collaboration with Viktor Jarek.
