• Signal In Noise

    Signal in Noise is a installation that layers elements of video and sound to dissect how our protective instincts attempt to preserve intimacy within over-saturated environments.

    Whether it be the constraining physical landscapes of our surrounding city structures, the intangible spaces in which our digital personas reside or our own internal mental constructs; we actively construct thresholds to protect intimacy. Signal in Noise explores these notions using multiple layers of transparent projection surfaces, each spaced several feet in front of the next. This structure allows the viewer to gain a sense of physical depth that is impossible with traditional film. One can perceive the narrative as a composite by standing directly in front, or dissect each element by walking between the layers.

    The Personal Data Revolution

    It’s possible for the average person to collect and analyze unprecedented amounts of data about themselves.

  • August 4-6: Introduction to Programming Art with Processing

    For those who are in the S.F. Bay Area in August, I will be teaching a class on the programing language Processing at Ex’pression College for Digital Arts.

    “Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and interactions. It is used by students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists for learning, prototyping, and production. It is created to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context and to serve as a software sketchbook and professional production tool.”
