GRAYSON BAILEY received a Masters of Architecture from University of Nebraska in 2014 and subsequently worked as a Design Architect in New York (Studio Castellano) and Stuttgart (Laboratory for Visionary Architecture). From 2018 -2020 Grayson studied two further MSc degrees in MediaArchitecture at Bauhaus Universität Weimar and University at Buffalo SUNY. Starting in 2020 Grayson taught technical approaches for Architecture students at BUW and worked as a Research Assistant on the use of Virtual Reality in architectural user studies at the Professur Informatik in der Architektur at BUW. In 2023 Grayson joined the department Architecture Theory as a Research Assistant. Grayson writes and researches on the overlap of political, medial and architectural themes.
