I just uploaded a brand new video of my Laser Feedback Lab installation.
Laser Feedback Lab is a video art installation, based on an optical feedback loop, that allows the viewer to explore interactions with laser pointers, pieces of glass or even just their hand.
This Installation was featured at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Million Fishes Gallery and LoveTech in San Francisco.
The soundtrack is was written by my good friend irisFibers, and is part of his "Thoughts Ideas" EP.
Check out a brand new photo set from LoveTech, last Saturday 10.18.10 at Il Pirata in San Francisco, courtesy of our friend Twita.
This month's edition featured the sultry face-melting sounds of Moldover, Henry Strange, Ribotto, William Light and Exillon, as well as four different interactive areas, including: Rich DDT's Digital Jam Lounge, Mzo's Cinema Jockey, Sid Gabriel's Light Nucleus and my Vocal Chaos Lab.
Mzo gave a short talk and a demonstration of Cinema Jockey, a new interface he created for the iPad with TouchOSC. The interface drives software that mashes up video clips and can be used for generating live audio-reactive visuals to accompany musical performances.
I also gave a brief talk on optical feedback and a demonstration of Vocal Chaos Lab. The piece illustrates the concept of manipulating a video feedback loop with an audio signal, the human voice in this case.
I am excited to announce that I will be setting up some interactive fractal art installations at the upcoming Sea of Dreams new years eve event at the Concourse Exhibition Center in San Francisco.
The musical lineup is nothing short of epic, and I am honored to be working with such a stellar group of local artists, including: Lyès Belhocine, Moldover, Tim Anderson, Jen Cohen, Rich DDT, Sid Gabriel Hubbard, Tim Thompson and many more.
We will be building an art zone, dubbed the "Fractal Forest" in honor of Benoit Mandelbrot, that will showcase new possibilities of interaction.

I just uploaded a video demo of my Macroscope installation.
Macroscope is an interactive projection piece created through optical feedback. As you can see, the piece responds to movement and allows the viewer to physically interact with the piece.
The piece also appears to exhibit tendencies of a reaction diffusion system.
Macroscope premiered at the Projections gallery show at Million Fishes gallery in San Francisco on 9.10.10.
The video also features an original piece of music I wrote a couple of years ago, entitled "Silk Milk."

Again with another photo set, but this is visual art after all. These were shot by Lisa Ann of Somewhere in Time Photography at the Projections gallery show on 9.10.10 at Million Fishes gallery in San Francisco.
This was the first galley show I curated, and I intend to do many more! The one-night event featured interactive and experimental works in video by Rich DDT, Mary Franck, Jon Ferran and myself.
Pieces included Ferran's projected 3D facial recognition robot "TV Guy," DDT's cosmos channeling "Galaxy Conduit," which has been on tour at festivals up and down the west coast, a stunning video loop by Franck, a naturally occurring "Pythagoras Tree" I discovered in consumer electronics and more.

Yet another wonderful set of photographs by SpaceCat! These were shot at the California Academy of Sciences weekly NightLife event on 8.25.10.
The LoveTech crew invaded and filled the academy with live electronic music, visuals and interactive art including an untitled piece by me.
This was the first time I presented a feedback piece on a progressive scan monitor. The results were very different from my previous work with interlacing CRT monitors.

I wanted to direct your attention to a lovely photo set by my friend SpaceCat. These are from the DIYbca event at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco on 8.14.10.
The event featured a whole mess of interactive art including Tim Anderson's Zoetrope and my Laser Feedback Lab.
Much fun was had by all!
