Meet Mario Müller, known in the digital world as ‘basdartai’, a creative force based in the heart of Germany. With over 20 years of experience as a Design Director, Mario's career began as a media designer in Frankfurt and Berlin, where he shaped groundbreaking campaigns for top agencies like Saatchi & Saatchi, Jung von Matt/Spree, and Ogilvy & Mather, working with renowned global brands and earning multiple prestigious awards.
In 2011, Mario co-founded the digital agency UFOMAMMOOT in Berlin, where he and his team explored new technologies to create innovative web experiences for clients such as Adidas.
Since 2014, he has been running the creative and consulting studio This is Miller alongside his wife, Nina.
With an unwavering passion for digital trends and technology, Mario has recently focused on the intersection of humanity and artificial intelligence. In 2023, he began exploring AI’s role in his digital creations, pushing the boundaries of what art can be in a world increasingly shaped by machines.
His creative process is fueled by experimentation, often interpreting his own images and remixing colors and gradients. For Mario, platforms like Midjourney offer an endless playground for artistic expression, where he can explore surreal, thought-provoking works designed to provoke and engage.
In 2023, Mario held his first solo exhibition, Minds of the Machine, which showcased the multisensory installation ai_am_jesus. Collaborating with ART BRÜT, he also developed an AI-inspired fragrance, EAU MY GOD, that further expanded the sensory experience of his work.
Today, Mario is represented by the German AI artist agency yesweprompt, continuing to push the boundaries of creativity and technology.
