About Me

I make interactive installation art using technology and scientific research. I love the mind, my bag of salt-water and neurons can operate machinery. Machines should hijack our epistimilogical mechanisms/sensitivity for social nuance, the face is my prefered method of communication, my hands love to gesture (more or less autonomically), they provide communication's necesary contextual-accoutremounts. I love parrots, I love seeing the physical and digital intertwined. I love sound, music is my destabilizer, it moves me to make shit. I need attention, and fear it, but I want it anyway.
