David Ben Kay 康如松 David is a 20-year resident of Beijing having begun his study of China over 35 years ago in the U.S. A lawyer who specialized in intellectual property, David was able to expand his interests in the creative world five years ago when he entered Microsoft to lead the companys endeavours to spread the value of creativity and innovation to both the government and the general public. At the same time, David deepened his exploration of his own creative side, moving into a space at 798 where he designed and created a unique loft which has now metamorphosed into the Yuanfen New Media Art Space. David says, To be able to provide the platform for art and technology to come together in this space is a dream come true for me. My passion for both art and technology has found a home. I know firsthand that art and technology can both, individually, change our lives and when you bring them together, new worlds are created.
