About
I’m Doruk, but you’ll probably hear Toto more often.
I’m a design engineer and materials scientist working at the intersection of hardware, AI, and environmental systems. I often wonder about how emerging technologies can shape an abundant future, whether that means abundance in creativity, fun, energy, circularity, or resources.
I thrive when prototyping intelligent tools that connect the physical, digital and human. From AI-powered water tech to generative music instruments like Cicada designed for musicians, I’m always looking for new ways to push emerging tech into playful, regenerative, or unexpected directions.
If you’d like to see what I’m working on post-IDE, you can follow the journey of Lir Labs , a group project we spun off to generate real-world impact.
