What excites me
As a digital artist, programmer, and performer, my research and artistic practice have been at the intersection of diverse fields, from computer science and music to neuroscience and nanotechnology. Over the past fifteen years, I have developed a unique and multifaceted approach that marries fine art, music, electronics, and empirical datasets, culminating in what I have termed “sensing data.” This framework serves as the backdrop for my artistic endeavors, which strive to merge empirical data with creative expression in a manner that aligns with the principles of ‘Design for Change.’
My work capitalizes on the potential of art, technology, and data to document the evolving human and environmental landscapes and at the same time inspire transformative action. By exploring the multisensory aspects of our world and promoting community engagement, I hope to contribute to the broader dialogue on change and progress in the realms of art, technology, and society. In doing so, I aim to facilitate a future that is both innovative and socially responsible, driven by the power of data and the creative spirit.
Under the overarching banner of “sensing data,” my projects are united by a common goal: to bridge the multiple sensory realms in which we perceive and understand our world, especially in the context of ecology. In my work, I endeavour to craft a visual and auditory landscape that immerses the audience in the evolving ecology of human interactions. By doing so, I aim to offer a sensory register that documents the changes in human interactions and highlights the technology that empowers and enhances these interactions. Furthermore, this exploration extends to the intricate relationship between humans and their natural or post-industrial environment.
Within the ‘Design for Change’ paradigm, my research takes on a dynamic role, emphasizing the potential of data to empower communities and drive policy development and environmental decision-making. My projects encompass two primary dimensions:
1. Ecology of Human Interactions:
This dimension delves into the rich tapestry of human interactions, spanning tactile, mental, linguistic, and sensorial realms. It seeks to address and deconstruct the construction of gender inequalities and gendered social differences. My creative endeavours within the ‘sensing data’ framework aim to challenge stereotypes and present positive alternatives. Through digital art, I aspire to contribute to the enhancement of well-being and quality of life by transcending traditional boundaries and inspiring meaningful change. The ‘Design for Change’ philosophy aligns with this goal, as it centers around transformative, inclusive, and innovative solutions.
2. Human Interaction with the Environment:
This aspect of my research embraces co-inquiry and the creative analysis of data as a means to empower communities in shaping policy development and environmental decision-making. Here, ‘Design for Change’ is especially relevant, as it encourages the generation of innovative solutions to social and environmental challenges. By leveraging empirical data and artistic expression, I aim to foster a deeper understanding of the interplay between humans and their environment, empowering communities to be active participants in shaping a sustainable future.
