Mike Briand
Text messaged Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick with his cell phone’s keypad in segments.

Sound Scapes
Networked generative art and interactive systems for installations, architecture, and public spaces. It has interpreted data from security tracking, and environmental monitoring. These artworks involve collecting the data, visualizing the data, and then displaying the data. The outputs from the online interfaces and online visualizations are realized as real time dynamic artworks as diverse as installations, and real objects, made out of new display materials back in physical space.

Sensors in your fingers, wrists, and elbows translate your movement into instrumental sound.


IN[]EX
IN[ ]EX is a project by a Canadian art group which acts as a nice low-tech approach to the spread of digital information. Their piece consist of a shipping container with (initially) 3000 wooden blocks of various sizes attached to it with tiny magnets. There are also a few bigger ones that actually contain sensors for the smaller blocks. The setup has two functions: a sound installation inside the container which is being generated and influenced through the way that the small blocks are attached to the wall of the container and around the city.
