<p>The Infinite Depth of Consciousness  is a dynamic and multidimensional representation of thoughts and virtual consciousness on the internet. Utilising the Twitter API, real-time data of tweets are collected from around the world.</p>
<p>The visualisation gives form to conversations and collective thoughts on Twitter by means of point &amp; click interaction with user generated content allowing for navigation through intimate details of thought and at the same time observe a larger social trend.</p>
<p>This experiment breaks away from more established visualisation genres by not just offering a visual pattern but also the opportunity to select and interact with the data.</p>

The Sum of Three Parts is a computational approach to represent music. This project examines graphic notation and explores the possibility of expressing musical patterns and sequences as physical data sculptures.
Forms are derived from 2 dimensional graphic notations reflecting arrangements, intervals and pitch in 3 dimensional polygonal structures.

Flux is envisioned as a floating canopy created by applying swarm robotics to architecture.
Inspired by nature, this experiment aims to convey a soothing experience to its visitors providing a relaxing, meditative space to commune.
Rather then to express the literal image of technology, the goal is to create technological ambience.
