Radio Salience
"Radio Salience" is an image-text-sound instrument with certain game-like features. The player (user? listener? reader?) watches an array of four image panels, showing component slices from various larger images. When any two slices match, slot-machine style, a click will initiate a poetastic moment. There is no score, so no way to win, lose, or escape. Radio is all.

"I have known that which the Greeks do not know -- uncertainty" (Borges).
Just another entry in the Babylon Lottery, this project explores indeterminacy, accident, and resonance, taking as its muse the breathless voice of the airwaves, or radio. What did those Greeks know, anyway?
Some may ask, are we yet reading? Well, somebody had to, but in most cases they weren't human. No sirens were harmed, and no one is like to drown. Also, this is once again not a game. Though what you will see is certainly playable, there is no real contest, no score, no leveling. Let's play Twister, let's play Risk.

Why Some Dolls Are Bad: a generative graphic novel for the iPhone
Why Some Dolls Are Bad is a generative, permutational graphic novel which engages themes of ethics, fashion, artifice and the self, and presents a re-examination of systems and materials including mohair, contagion, environmental decay, Perspex cabinetry, and false-seeming things in nature such as Venus Flytraps.
Why Some Dolls Are Bad was originally launched on the Facebook platform but has been adapted for the iPhone and relaunched in 2010. The project collects images from a tag-constrained stream of public Flickr images and combines them with fragments from the original non-linear text. Once the application is downloaded, image and text come together into a frame which is read and then advanced, creating an ongoing dynamic narrative.
Readers can capture frames and send them to an archive, where each frame becomes a “page” in the novel. The collective archiving of iterative captures from the project means that a version of the book can be read in a linear order.

El rumor de los álamos
Oscar Martín Centeno said "the aim of my videoprojections is to impregnate the audience with all the senses". El rumor de los álamos -The Murmur of Poplars- suceeds in reinforcing the poetic meaning with the expressive reading of the author, the relaxing piano music and the image of hands getting together in a liquid atmosphere, like if they were inside of a river in an imaginary forest in a memory or dream (Maya Zalbidea 2014).

Les Descendants
“The Descendants” by Alexandre Gherban is a dynamic and “active” program with an indeterminate function. It varies in transiency, sometimes being transient and other times intransient; In other words, the aspects of the program (the text, the images, and the sounds) change and move constantly in a random, or indeterminate, function. Even if the text does not have a personal perspective, the viewer plays a role by choosing his/her path in the work. The reader can interact with the processes and find the links within the images. Only then do words reveal themselves. By clicking on the words, (“the descendants”, “the parents”, “who…”, “and who…”) the work changes and the viewer can interact with the images of the new page. For the page where one sees “the parents”, one must choose one of the two images that represent the parents themselves, and this choice determines the path for what follows. This function suggests a reference to artificial life. By starting with “the parents” that produce “the descendants”, the viewer sees a type of reproduction that resembles that of a family tree. By choosing the path of one parent or the other, the user has an exploratory function.
