Mahmoud Hassan Mshinda

Hey, Mahmoud here! I�m a recent graduate from Monash University with a deep love for art and technology. Although my official training has primarily been in the realm of software and computers, I�ve had a longstanding passion for art and other mediums of creative expression such as music and the written word. I strongly believe that the most interesting of things can happen at the intersection of heart and mind, where we couple solid, foundational knowledge with elements from the wildest expanse of our creative minds in search of new possibilities that may result in outcomes that are novel and beautiful. This belief is largely what drove me towards my Blackbird Protostar project that aims to leverage the power of Artificial Intelligence in the discovery and creation of one of humanity�s most treasured inventions: art.On the more personal side, I enjoy playing the electric guitar and deriving unspeakable joy from terrible dad jokes. I�ll also stop anything at a drop of a hat to tune into rocket launches.
