Please ask me about these:

Alias Garden Infra- and sub-sonic bass pressure from fan subs. Imperceptible high-frequency (kHz) strobe lighting is the only light source. Sculptures with high-speed periodic motion are driven at and around the strobe frequency in concert with varying the frequency of the soundtrack, appearing to result in impossible frozen, slow, or reverse motions. The effect is profoundly uncanny.

Inside Outside A large mirrored cylinder sits at the center of a table-height horizontal circular screen in a cylindrical room. The table-screen shows a panoramic image stitched from cameras around the perimeter of the room, anamorphically distorted so in the reflection of the cylinder the viewer sees the view of the room from over their shoulder. A ribbon LED screen at the top of the surrounding wall shows the image from the 360 camera mounted in the top of the cylinder.

A Column in a Place A large mirrored cylinder sits at the center of a table-height horizontal circular screen in a cylindrical room. The table-screen shows a view of a 3D scene, distorted so the viewer can look all around the scene by looking ‘through’ the cylinder, walking around it, or by rotating the cylinder itself, which causes the view of the scene to rotate as well. Lifting the cylinder switches the display on the table to a map, or a birds’-eye render of the world, and placing the cylinder back on the table in a new places moves the view to that location.

FaceDoxx Part art, part advocacy. A finger exercise to manifest ‘A Space’, as outlined in Augmented Realist and in my short story “All the Kinds of Glass”. A website that allows the user to verify their ownership of their face (as in the FaceID onboarding), and to choose any digital thing to link their face to, including nothing. A kind of a QR code for your face. Any user can provide an image of any face and get back the link of that face owners’ choice.
