For fun, I revisited this project to create a new identity for the American Composers Orchestra and its member programs.

COLOR COMPLEX

Who knew my first game concept was a good one? Entered on a whim and managed to be one of two contestants with no previous game experience who made it to the semis. (The other being Rudhraigh McGrath, a fellow Hyper.) Color Complex, a game based on color theory, is still being improved and may one day become a real game.

MEDIA FACADE FESTIVAL AT ARS (2010)

I was fortunate to work with Refik Anadol, Sebastain Neitch, Johannes Schmidt, Kerim Karaoglu and Efe Mert Kaya in creating the opening mapping piece for ARS Electronica's Maintenance, Repair and Operations' Frozen Music in Linz, Austria.

EYES EARS NOSE MOUTH

The following images were created by using software that selects and randomizes elements of the face. For these images, I wanted to experiment with similar shapes that we weren't accustomed to associating with the face. What resulted were cartoon-style images that liked to multiply.

WITH WAITED BREATH

It was my first week in Stockholm. By the end if it, I couldn't walk or eat and, I could barely breath. But, I could still write. This four minute speech recounted my near 12-hour lay-over in Copenhagen that had yet to release it's painful hold on me.
