D2 is the brainchild of Prof. Rai Cruz and Prof. Meneer Marcelo, Professors of MAS department in Mapúa.

They wanted to combine two different approaches to visual art making process. On one side, the precise and clean method of digital design and on the other is the more expensive and spontaneous attitude of traditional painting. They thought that the collaboration of these seemingly opposing forces could produce something visually surprising.
