Writing Place - 09/06

Writing Place is an audiovisual interactive installation in which the participant's motions are captured and mirrored back to them in the form of a collage of text, graphics and sound. The mood of this literary environment is controlled by the degree of movement of those who enter it.

This piece allows the user to create a soundscape out of fragments of human voice. A minimalist aesthetic has been employed both to contrast the organic elements and for more of a pure interactive experience.

Broken City - 03/06

Broken City lies somewhere between generative art, software art, hyperfiction and photomontage. It is an investigation of the fragmenting effects that technology has on society. Interacting with it allows the user to "paint" different combinations of the various elements of a city and its inhabitants while composing an urban soundscape.

Sugar - 11/05

This is the outcome of an investigation into randomness using JavaScript. Using the theme of hallucinogenic drugs and the psychadelic figureheads of the 60's, Sugar is a selection of randomised cinematic engines that attempt to recreate some of the disorganised effects of such substances.
