// Bio
Rodolphe Ködderitzsch is an entrepreneur, operator, digital artist, and curator living in New York City.
For more than two decades, his work has focused on the intersection of culture, technology, and economic systems: how new technologies reshape human behavior, how creative work becomes economic value, and who benefits from that transformation.
He spent over a decade at Google and YouTube, helping build the infrastructure that enabled a generation of creators, artists, and media companies to turn audiences into businesses. After leaving Google, he founded, advised, and operated venture-backed companies across advertising technology, creator tools, and digital culture, including Otis AI, Hype, Quantum Art, and Squarespace, where he led Social & Creators products serving more than ten million people worldwide.
Alongside his work in technology, Ködderitzsch maintains an artistic practice exploring synthetic realities, networked identity, and the increasingly blurred boundary between human and machine. Working primarily with generative AI, photography, and moving image, his work examines the cultural, psychological, and political consequences of living inside systems.
