Donovan Barnett is an award-winning writer, creative technologist, and owner of the art-science studio, (y)YŪGEN. With over ten years of experience, as a writer, Donovan explores the relationship between emerging technology and “FutureCraft” — celebrating the pioneers playfully experimenting with new creative tech tools. As a horology expert, Don enjoys tackling the art, science, and engineering of watchmaking and its ever-present influence on culture, especially hip-hop. From historic brands still pushing the boundaries of horology to the new independent players shaking up the industry, Don is your go-to for “what’s next” in the realms of watches. When Don is not discussing how generative design is changing couture he’s hunting for vintage Pateks or reading a Neri Oxman paper with some Pusha T in the background.
