      Biography


      Daniel Landau was born on 1 March 1973 in Jerusalem. He completed his master's degree at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague. During his studies, he wrote music for Dutch contemporary music ensembles, such as Nieuw Ensemble, Orkest de Volharding, and Slagwerkgroep Den Haag, and performed at concert halls and festivals, including the Concertgebouw and Paradiso Festival. In 2016, Landau began pursuing a Ph.D. at the Aalto University Media Lab in Helsinki, Finland.
      In 2001, he established the art collective BZAZ Foundation, which created full-length media shows that toured different cities in Germany, Hungary, Belgium, Mexico, Spain, England, and Israel.
      Landau lived in the Netherlands for ten years and returned to Israel in 2006. He then began work on a performance platform based on projection and movement.
      In 2008, he collaborated with artists, dancers, engineers, and designers to create the British-Israeli stage production show One-Dimensional Man. The show was a direct continuation of Landau's interest in the relationship between the human body and technology. It took place at the Suzanne Dellal Center for Dance and Theater and received positive reviews. In addition, Landau created a series of works called 'Reside', using a docu-performance platform that he had established.
      Later in 2014, Landau established the 'Oh-Man, Oh-Machine' platform, through which he initiates international conferences, workshops, salon meetings, and a research group intended to promote a techno-social critical discourse using the philosophical framework of Posthumanism. In 2013–2015, he served as head of digital media studies at The Midrasha Faculty of the Arts, Beit Berl Academic College, Israel.
      Landau serves as a senior research fellow at the Advanced Virtuality Lab (AVL) at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya, Israel. He has been invited to present his works at festivals and museums in Israel and overseas, including at the Hamburg Symphony Orchestra, the Radio Filharmonisch Orkest, Maison européenne de la photographie in Paris, the Centro-Historico Festival (Mexico), Bath International Music Festival (England), Kaserne (Switzerland), the Bartok Festival (Hungary), and the Nakanojo Biennale (Japan).
      In 2017, he taught a winter semester at the Design and Media department at UCLA.
      Landau has delivered lectures at universities, conferences, and festivals around the world, including at Stanford University, California, the California Institute of Technology, San Diego State University, the Shenzhen Fair in China, RIXC Festival in Latvia, the Israel Society of Biological Psychiatry, the B3 Biennale in Frankfurt, the Haifa Film Festival in Israel, and the Czech National Library of Technology
