drawings / objects / installation / video / CD-Rom / www / MOO
working with material, space and new media i am used to collaborate with
others.
using the computer, using the web it was the media itsself which conditioned
me to deal with text:
i built a library of familystories of Canadian immigrants during the last
century, i created an online game representing literature of 7 Austrian female
writers.
but besides the representational aspect which I used digital media for
working now on a moo allows me to interact with the media in a way where the
text becomes the meeting place between the code of the media and my personal
interest.
