Danny Oppenheim
Daniel Oppenheim spent his life exploring interconnections between art, science, and innovation. He built his first darkroom as a teenager to support his early work as a professional photographer. His five books of early poetry are in Hebrew and collected in The Gift of Life under the pen name of David Eshaal. As a composer of vocal, instrumental, and computer music, his works were performed worldwide, twice representing Israel in the prestigious World Music Days. To compose his electronic music, he developed the first interactive system for music composition and performance: DMIX. IBM Research then invited him to co-create its Computer Music Center, and later awarded him their highest level of technical recognition for transforming their service delivery from local to global capabilities. As a fine-art photographer Daniel explores non-verbal human communication that takes place as people interact with each other.
