Art

With our limited human senses, how can we cultivate the sensibility to engage meaningfully with the complex world around us? The challenge has only deepened as our world fills with machine intelligences and system dynamics alongside humans and other creatures. My artistic practice, seeded by a lifetime of computing, is rooted in precisely this semiotic ecology. Across interactive objects, visual art, and immersive installations, my work seeks to engender new ways of sensing and of making sense.

I am currently updating the site project pages. By July 18th you'll be able to learn more about individual works!
