  • Your Seedling Language

    Your Seedling Language utilises environmental data that is commonly related to the growth of plants. The moisture of the soil, light and temperature outside of the school provides organic compositional parameters that manipulate a generative, eight- channel vocal composition. With over 1,000 syllabic samples to call upon, the artwork unravels ideas surrounding the theory of Biolinguistics, providing the school with a language of its own.

  • Projective Verse 9: Deep Breadths

    For Projective Verse 9: Deep Breadths, the gallery was mutated into a holding place for a spatiotemporal text. Within this field of action, an algorithmic disembodied voice searches for a space to point meaning. Churning through digital and physical structural manipulations, the malleability of space and meaning was roused.

  • Conundrum 8: I am somewhere between we and they

    This work questions the political and personal use of pronouns. Playing a key role in the construction of the ‘self’ and the ‘other’, pronouns help toward the creation and division of societies. Sonic-twitter feeds that include the words ‘we + think’ and ‘they + think’ are presented as a live calibration test for the self.

    In part, the work grapples with the impossibilities of fixed positioning in the universe.

  • Affirmation 3: Understand(ing)

    Utilising esoteric spiritual practices, the possibility of understanding quantum-physics concepts through everyday language is questioned by employing a live audio-abstraction.

  • Synthesiser 7: (un)Certain

    Synthesiser 7:(un)Certain grapples with Werner Heisneberg's uncertainty principle and issues that arise when certain scientific experiments are observed. This live sound installation is controlled by the viewer’s proximity to the speakers.

  • Exercises 4-6: Still-Life

    Through these works, the absurdity of a “still-life” is semantically picked apart by a technological means.

  • Exercise 8: Colour Test

    As a counter-strike against technology’s overbearing semantic influence, the main gallery space in RE:definition, my second solo-exhibition, became a testing ground in which fact and definition were argued between technological representation and one’s innate knowledge of colour.

  • Breakfast in Limbo

    Breakfast in Limbo places the audience in a scenario in which technology has become defunct or untrustworthy. Objects whose function and value are defined by a technological means are manipulated to highlight the relationship between the viewer, object and technology.
