Introduction

 

How can computer art help explore human perception, make visible underlying mind and body processes, and be used to help people on a therapeutic level?

I explore ways to experience ‘objects’ in relation to how we perceive them. I make ‘looking’ active rather than reactive, showing different viewpoints. An important perspective I examine is frequency; using computers to extract information from inside and outside of the body. This information is then translated into a poetic experience of patterns, sounds, and imagery.

Testing how my techniques could help people on a therapeutic level interests me. I am researching using digital art, and scientific and medical imaging to help promote meaningful relationships. I create installations, sculptures, stereographic animations, and real-time interactive compositions as ways to investigate underlying mind and body processes.

These disciplines are tools used to pay attention to what goes on inside alongside influences from our environment. The idea is to get inside and re-arrange the process then see what emerges. Using this to affect learning and develop healthy perception.
