How to Make Almost Anything
During my graduate studies at MIT, I undertook a rigorous and practical hands-on journey through the world of digital fabrication, where I developed a strong understanding of its capabilities through projects using them individually and jointly to create functional systems. This is a portfolio of my creations during that time.
-
The studies and implementations were done through the guidance and patronage of Dr. Neil Gershenfeld during my graduate studies as an Electrical Engineering and Computer Science student.

I like building things, as a true Egyptian, its in my blood. My ancestors were pioneers of innovation, laying the foundation to a lot of the tools we have today.
As the cradle of civilization, Egypt is home to 6,000 years of diverse excellence through its dynamic history. where it has acted as a home base for creativity. Throughout its long history of being conquered and colonized by different civilizations from around the world, it remained as the home base for creativity and the show case for sublimity, as Sultan Selim of the Ottoman Empire expressed that "every empire would bring their best foot forward and exhibit their greatest work in Egypt."
I always look to the past as an inspiration for creating the future. I’m fortunate to have my ancestors, because half the work is already done for me.
