Halim Madi

I'm a Lebanese-born artist, performer, and creative technologist working at the intersection of code, memory, and storytelling. My practice blends poetic systems, interactive theater, and AI tools to explore how language remembers, especially in the aftermath of displacement.

I led product and design teams at Meta (launching Avatars, redesigning Facebook profiles), at Stripe where I rebuilt developer documentation, and at Mistral AI where I launched deep research and memory projects. In 2025, I became the Poet-in-Residence at Devconnect, exploring blockchain as a medium for poetic ritual.
