I’ve released an app based on my earlier experiments with kaleidoscope video feedback. I’m rather proud, an early user review heralds it as “Best eye candy on the ipad! Addictive, hypnotic and fun. Highly recommended“. I have a simple site … Read More
I have been working for Goldsmiths on a research project in consortium with UCL and Rebellion. http://www.doc.gold.ac.uk/progen/ Some of the software developed in the course of this project is illustrated in these videos, which appear to have embedding disabled for … Read More
