Machine Movement Lab

Bodies and things are inherently relational and porous, always ready to be reconfigured and entangled. The improvisational performance seeks to materialize the proposition of a more horizontal playground for dancing with machines, requiring us to get entangled and resonate with…

Machine Movement Lab

Machine Movement Lab is a creative research lab that explores the potential of movement and extended choreography for reimagining how machines look, learn and affect us. At its core, the lab develops new, performative methods for designing abstract robotic forms…

Accomplice

Accomplice is a large-scale robotic installation that embeds a group of autonomous robots into the walls of the gallery. The work nestles itself into our human environment and turns it into a playground for a colony of curious, social machines….

Zwischenräume (In-between Spaces)

Zwischenräume embeds autonomous robots into the architectural skin of the gallery; the wall becomes the habitat of self-motivated, ‘intelligent’ machines. Zwischenräume (In-between Spaces) is concerned with the intimate complicities that connect us with the machinic ecologies we create. It develops…

Uzume

Uzume is a virtual environment that bodily immerses participants in a three-dimensional, human-scale dataspace. The work challenges common assumptions about the non-physicality of ‘virtual realities’ and how it legitimises a determined control over the body’s messy and noisy conditions. Immersed…

Urban Fiction 2.0

Urban Fiction 2.0 is an artwork that deploys locative and social media to weave an imaginary lace over Sydney’s urban and social landscape. Initially resembling a map of the city, the lace is transformed by social interactions, and the map…

Urban Fiction

Urban Fiction imagines the multi-layered urban fabric to be constantly rewoven, torn apart and stitched together again. Mutual relations between the ‘lived’ and the ‘mapped’ are made visible and tangible in the form of a performative cartography. The work uses…

On Track

On Track is a performative assemblage involving a mechanical mop, a troupe of robotic brushes and spilling viscous fluids. The work develops an ironic lens through which to look at human endeavour, its overly complicated mechanisms and procedures, and their…

Maya–Veil of Illusion

Maya—Veil of Illusion extends the data space and with it the participants’ presence across two remote, networked sites.  Immersed in Maya, participants are networked and mapped to one another, allowing them to apparently ‘step through the looking glass’ and be…

Memory

Memory explores the elasticity of memory as a fluid continuum of time and space, seeking alternative modes of representation; always slippery, indeterminate and incomplete. The installation uses a meshwork of laser beams and cameras to involve participants in a heist–like…

Complicit

Complicit is a sculptural performance work embedded into the walls of a gallery that integrates both manual and robotic interventions to explore the materiality of agency. Complicit has been developed in collaboration with AI researcher Rob Saunders and textile artist…

Die Politik der Wand (Politics of the Wall)

Diese Variante von Zwischenräume nistet sich in die Haut des FORUM STADTPARK ein und wird zu einer Graffiti-Tattoo Maschine. Die Installation ist Teil eines künstlerischen Forschungsprojektes, das mit dem performativen Potential von an die Architektur gekoppelten Robotern experimentiert. Dabei geht…

Net_Dérive

Net_Dérive deploys advanced mobile phones, and represents a kind of musical instrument, interpreting the city-as-instrument. The concept of this work was inspired by the Situationist dérive, calling upon techniques from interactive music applied to a mobile context. A collective narrative emerges…

Excavation

Excavation is a networked virtual environment that explores the mediated surface of historiography. The work immerses participants in a metaphoric archeology of encounter, wherein their presence engenders temporally unique and continually adaptive sets of relationships between the networked participants, the…
