NYFA Fellowship

I got awarded a NYFA fellowship 2010 in the category of video! Thanks NYFA!


New exhibit open in New York

I’ve been working on an interactive light sculpture for the World Science Festival, which just opened yesterday here in New York. It’s my third collaboration with Leni Schwendinger and it’s part of an exhibit for LIGO, an international collective of scientists who are expanding our understanding of the universe by studying gravitational waves. Fascinating stuff, and our piece provides a fun and playful way to encounter some of the gravitational waveforms through light and sound. A touchscreen and microphone provide an interface for people to listen to and imitate the sounds of supernovas and in-spiraling black holes! Check the video here.


Rising Currents at MOMA

I finally found the time to go up to MOMA, partly because I wanted to see the Marina Abramovic retrospective before it closed, but also because I hadn’t yet been to see the Rising Currents exhibition, which features four animations that I made with nArchitects. It’s an exhibit that is packed full of information. I liked the oysters.


I-Park residency

I’m happy and grateful to post that I’ve been awarded an artist residency by the kind folks at I-Park. I’m looking forward very much to a chance to get away from the work schedule, and dream up some new ideas.


Puffin Foundation grant

Huge thanks to the Puffin Foundation, who have generously awarded me a grant to help fund continued work on “A Show Of Hands”. I’m really hoping to raise enough funds to work with some local high schools on this project, so this award is very much appreciated!


World Science Fair

Back in New York, and working hard on a great new project with Light Projects – an interactive light sculpture for the world science fair, which is being designed in partnership with LHSA+DP as an educational exhibit for the folks at LIGO.
