Who is Janne Honkonen

Janne Honkonen is a versatile Finnish artist, software architect, philosopher, designer, author, and a touch of a social media persona. For over two decades, he has created visual, physical, auditory, and written art—ranging from paintings, photography, video art and documentaries to commercials, jewelry, wood and metalwork, statue design, music, audio experiments, books, and poetry.
He has also excelled in the world of computing, being a talented and experienced 2D and 3D graphician, software developer, web and game developer, designer, marketer, and branding strategist for over thirty years. His technical expertise spans from web applications, management systems, databases, server and cloud infrastructure to desktop software with visual programming, as well as complete game development pipelines.
He’s the kind of person you call when everyone else has run out of ideas. The cobwebbed door creaks open, a wizard-like figure with a long beard steps in, does something sparkly and strange—and ba-dum, it all works again. Then he vanishes, leaving only legends and stunned faces behind.
