Born 1933. Sculptor and conceptual artist. In 1972 he started to work with the computer, cooperating with the computer programer Vladimír Haltenberger. Computer generated curves were used as a template for manufacturing rotational, human-like sculptures. The initial drawings were chosen from random series created by a computer. In 1998 founded Visual Arts and Intermedia FU TU Košice where he heads the Studio of Free Creativity 3D.

From the Profil interview: "Počítač vypočítal množstvo rôznych kriviek a pre ďalší postup som zvolil jednu z nich, náhodou, podľa čísla poradia, bez vizuálnej inšpekcie jej tvaru. Cieľom bolo eliminovať subjektívny výber krivky. Na základe počítačovej kresby sa vysústružilo rotačné teleso, ktoré som potom dotváral frézovaním, brúsením a leštením. Celý proces tvorby artefaktu pripomínal prácu konštruktéra a projekt bol urobený tak, aby podobné artefakty mohol podľa neho vytvoriť ktokoľvek."
