Alessandro Miracapillo / aylesim · Berlin · Open to roles
I design and program systems where sound, interfaces, and human behavior meet.
My work moves between audio software, web platforms, and spatial experiences. Different outputs, same problem: make complex behavior understandable enough to perform, use, or inhabit.
How I work
I do not treat a project as a surface to style. I treat it as a set of relations: inputs, constraints, timing, feedback, misuse, attention.
I move between media because the underlying questions are often the same: what needs to be visible, what behavior should be exposed, what should stay quiet, and where a user or performer needs leverage.
I like projects where the hard part is not choosing a technology, but understanding the shape of the system: what should be fixed, what should remain alive, and how much complexity a person can hold while still feeling in control.
Selected work
Three entry points across audio software, web development, and spatial work.
Audio Developer
Tools for composing and performing: rule systems, mappings, constraints, interfaces that stay playable while they generate variation.
I build Max/MSP instruments and Ableton Live devices as playable systems: mappable, generative, precise enough for performance, open enough for misuse.
Through Aylesim Devices, I design and maintain a line of Max for Live tools used by 3,600+ customers and featured by Isotonik Studios and Attack Magazine.
Web Developer
Web interfaces as problem-solving: sites, editorial systems, archives, and browser-based tools built around the shape of the content.
I ship production sites and editorial systems for cultural organizations and research teams: scrollytelling, data-heavy interfaces, community platforms, and browser-based tools where structure and interaction need to hold up under real use.

Software for situations in space: installations, AV systems, live visuals, sensors, timing, and behavior that has to hold up in front of people.
I develop installations, AV performances, and digital artworks where software becomes part of a room: timing, sound, bodies, sensors, attention.
