Asher Lipman

Asher Lipman is a designer and developer whose work operates at the intersection of civic technology, privacy, and ludic design. Asher has full stack developer skills with experience in open source software management, design research, and iterative prototyping. Asher comes to Superbloom from Helpful Places, where he helped maintain and promote an open-source solution for digital transparency in smart cities. Prior to that, he served as a Research Assistant at Cornell University’s Interplay Research Lab, where his work focused on non-utilitarian design schemes for robots and AI agents. Asher holds a Bachelors in Information Science, though in his free time he likes to focus more on his minors in Game Design and Creative Writing. Outside of work you will probably find him reading, most likely something by Claire North or Nick Harkaway, or concocting increasingly elaborate sandwiches like that yellow alien from Lilo & Stitch.
