  1. Faith

    Faith is a kinetic poem that reveals itself in five successive states. Each new state is overlaid onto the previous one, incorporating the old text into the new. Each new state absorbs the previous one while at the same time engaging in an argument with it. The gradual textual unfolding is choreographed to music.

  3. The Many Voices of Saint Catarina of Pedemont

    This work employs animation, sound, graphics, and navigation as semiotic components working together with words to create multiple interpretive layers focusing on the spiritual preactices of a fictional medieval mystic, Saint Caterina. As the different voices offer varying perspectives, the user is immersed in a richly imaged and layered topography where the church hierarchy, academic scholars, the mass of believerss, and the female saint contest for the meaning and significance of her mystical experiences

  6. O Cosmonauta

    The initial idea of The Cosmonaut came from a suggestion that we work on the story of Ed Aldrin, bringing it to the digital environment. Of course, the philosophical or anthropological record did not seduce us in any way, but the possibility of fictionalizing a history of religious conversion (or reconversion). On the surface, what is known of this episode is that Aldrin, having remained alone in the Lunar Module while Neil Armstrong made his historic walk ( a small step for a man, a great leap for mankind ...), had a kind of religious epiphany. From there, he became (or came to be) a convicted Christian. On top of that, we proposed to change the location of the epiphany, which became a spacecraft in outer space, orbiting the Moon. The astronaut, on the other hand, would be a cosmonaut because of the etymological implications of this term

  7. To Pray Without Ceasing

    To Pray Without Ceasing is a web app that autonomously prays for people. It searches Twitter for expressions of need (e.g. "I need somebody to hug me right now" or "I need more money in my bank acct wtf"), especially those tweeted by users who have few followers and who are perhaps in need of solicitude. It then issues prayers for them using a variety of NLP techniques. Visitors of To Pray Without Ceasing must activate the system's prayers in a simple but symbolically significant way: they must light a candle (while making sure not to move the cursor too fast; one must proceed mindfully in sacred space). The action of lighting a candle is designed to make the system not "interactive" but rather what Robert Pfaller would call "interpassive"; the visitor delegates the work of praying—the practice of religion itself—to the machine, yet she still can feel vaguely responsible for whatever good work it does, whatever good words it utters. The system prays in different ways over the course of 24 hours, evoking the "Liturgy of the Hours" ("Horae Canonicae").

  8. Rozenkrans, of het gebed voor een goede dood

    Elektronische versie van de eerder al in de bundel Het geschenk//De maker (1996) op papier gepubliceerde cyclus ‘Rozenkrans, of het gebed voor een goede dood’. De lezer krijgt de volgende aanwijzingen: ‘Deze cyclus is in drie verschillende volgordes te lezen. Rechtstreeks, cirkelend en chaotisch. Kies voor de roos, het doodshoofd of klik op het onderstreepte woord (in de tekst van het gedicht) – en blijf erbij om niet reddeloos verloren te raken. De uitleg op de statusregel helpt…’ (Bron: https://ziedaar.nl/editie-4/een-nieuw-medium-een-nieuw-geluid/; https://www.dbnl.org/tekst/_lit003200101_01/_lit003200101_01_0013.php)
