Jurgen Scheible is a designer, media artist and musician who
holds a degree in telecommunications from Karlsruhe, Germany. After
graduating, he worked for eight years at Nokia in Finland pursuing
various positions such as programmer, product manager and
competence transfer manager. Besides his occupation, he performed
and produced music as well as media art under the pseudonym Lenin's
Godson.

In 2003, he left his engineering career to concentrate full-time
on his creative career, because he felt his heart was much more in
his artistic works that in engineering. In 2004, he became a
doctoral student at the media Lab at the University of Art
and Design, Helsinki, where he established the Mobile Hub, a
prototype development environment for mobile client and server
applications. it has a strong focus on artistic approaches and
creative design, and serves as a resource to art and design
students who use mobile technology as part of their projects. His
doctoral research focuses on designing multimodal user interfaces
for creating and sharing interactive artistic experiences.

Since 2004, he has been evangelizing Python for S60 as one of
its pioneers. he is internationally active having given talks and
taught innovation workshops in both academic and professional
settings on more than 40 occasions, in places such as Stanford
University, MIT, NTU Taiwan, Yahoo research Berkeley, Tsinghua
University Beijing, Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks, in more than
17 countries. His focus is on rapid mobile application prototyping
using creative approaches for innovation.

In 2006, he spent several months as a visiting scientist at MIT,
Boston in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence
Laboratory (CSAIL). Jurgen was recognized as a Forum Nokia Champion
in 2006 and 2007 for his driving vision of building bridges between
art, engineering and research. He was one of the winners of the ACM
Computers in Entertainment Scholarship Award in 2006 and
