About

I am Sukanth K (Kalivarathan), known artistically as Sukanth Original, an interdisciplinary researcher and artist working across my interests in AI, consciousness, wearables, HCI and creative expression. I’m currently a Research Fellow at Lossfunk mentored by Paras Chopra, where I research with a focus on consciousness sensory augmentation, and human cognitive augmentation. Previously, I was researching with the Fluid Interfaces Group at the MIT Media Lab, contributing to research on AR glasses for goal-orientation and was also researching with the HCIE group at MIT's CSAIL. Before MIT, I was with the HIVE Laboratory as a research intern, at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. My research works includes developing an always-on AI for Smart Glasses (showcased July 2024) and spatially grounded AI for smart living spaces. I have authored and developed research across core areas of HCI. In addition to research, I am a verified music artist on Spotify, YouTube and other platforms like Apple Music, composing & producing music since I was 13. I write always-on AI applications for current-generation smart glasses, that you can start using today!
