Whispering Galleries
Whispering Galleries by Amaranth Borsuk and Brad Bouse is digital erasure poetry first exhibited at the New Haven Free Public Library in 2014. As readers gesture over the computer, transcriptions from a New Haven shopkeeper’s 1858 diary dissolve as so much digital dust, leaving behind a shimmering poem. Through a webcam, readers’ shadows emerge from behind the words, creating a symbolic link between viewers and the work. Like the whispering gallery architecture referenced by the title, the project transmits “whispers” from the past across time. Borsuk, an artist and writer, composed the poetry, while Bouse, a creative programmer, coded the JavaScript that yields the digital effects.

200 Castles
Created in Unity using the Vuforia plug-in, 200 Castles is an augmented reality piece for iPad about time, longing, and magical spaces set in both the domestic spaces of a castle across multiple decades and in the spaces of memory. The viewer unlocks the story by using the iPad as a magic looking glass to look at a series of images in a photo album (‘trackables’ – the images contain features that the camera on the iPad is seeking). When the iPad’s camera ‘sees’ the images, the augmented reality technology overlays a small digital scene with accompanying audio.

Pocket Poetry
Pocket Poetry presents poetic texts as electronic objects. Each object is a poem. It has a sensor, a four line text display and an Arduino microcontroller. Each object reacts on the particular aspects of the environment: sounds, movements, light or sometimes smell even. Spectator can drive some objects by handling tumblers changing the generated poetry inside it. Some objects react on the spectator presence unexpected for her/him. After each interaction text on the screen is changed. Each object has tripod or alternatively it is possible to hung it on the wall or put on the pedestal. The objects are self-sufficient and only need electricity (220V). At the moment several sub serials including one with the Soviet time underground poetry are done. Here the “DADvA” serial with the texts of DADA poets is presented.

The Multiple Lives of Walter B.
An artwork realized as a physical installation, “The Multiple Lives of Walter B.” invites participants to explore how a number of interrelated decisions change a character’s biography. The participants engage with the piece by physically interacting with objects and locations, thus creating a sensory experience. Inspired by motives from the life of media theorist and philosopher Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), the work is simultaneously an exploration of history, through the lens of an individual character. Benjamin’s multifaceted life provides ample motives for an interactive treatment. Simultaneously, the many junctures in his biography open up a space for speculation – what would have become of him, if he had taken a different turn? At different points in time, he could have stayed in Sweden, in Ibiza or in Moscow. And what would have happened as a consequence? If he would have chosen Moscow, would he have returned to Germany as a Communist party functionary and ended his life as Minister for Culture? If he would have stayed in Ibiza, would he have been known as the first Hippie and a symbol of counterculture later?

Boum!
Boum! est un récit horizontal pour grands petits hommes, imaginé et illustré par Mikaël Cixous, mis en son par Jean-Jacques Birgé et propulsé par Mathias Franck.
Première production du genre, Boum! détourne les codes de visualisation classiques et invente une nouvelle façon de s’immerger dans une histoire. Le principe d’une lecture horizontale enrichie par une bande sonore réactive et surprenante, bouscule et enrichi à chaque instant la perception du spectateur.
Boum! dénote par la simplicité du procédé utilisé et la richesse du rendu. Les Inéditeurs marquent ici un retour aux sources quant au travail d’écriture et de mise en scène visuelle et sonore avec un credo simple : privilégier l’histoire et laisser l’imagination galoper.

Style Guide for Erasing Human Dignity
Style Guide for Erasing Human Dignity responds to the current political climate in America through a facetious writing guide mixed with poetry. The images within it trigger more text when viewed through an augmented reality app.
This “style guide” was inspired by a recent news article about the suggestion to modify language when applying for White House funding. This prospect is incredibly dangerous; what protections disappear when language is changed or erased? Spanish-language and LGBT resources were removed from WhiteHouse.gov, for example. Style Guide for Erasing Human Dignity comments on contemporary political issues (the current attack on immigration, environmental protections and journalism) with the proposal of new linguistic strategies. The guide suggests conflating words (Could ‘weather’ be the same as ‘climate’? Could ‘credible’ be replaced with ‘retweeted’?) and provides alternative definitions (Accountability: An account, and the ability to run it effectively. Also see: Social media).
This satirical writing guide is mixed with poetry and images of burning books.

Black Room
"Black Room," is a browser-based, narrative game about falling asleep while on your computer, on the internet. You play as an insomniac on the verge of sleep, moving through shifting states of consciousness. Hallucinatory, pixelated visions of landscapes filled with sprites ripped directly from the arcade/NES/SNES video games of your childhood appear and disappear as you click through fragile internet spaces. Point-n-click mini games are scattered throughout the narrative. Often interrupted, you continually return to the Black Room, a meditation technique your mother taught you for falling asleep, visualizing black flowers in a black vase on a black table in the center of a black room.

meme.garden
[meme.garden] is an Internet service that blends software art and search tool to visualize participants' interests in prevalent streams of information, encouraging browsing and interaction between users in real time, through time. Utilizing the WordNet lexical reference system from Princeton University, [meme.garden] introduces concepts of temporality, space, and empathy into a network-oriented search tool. Participants search for words which expand contextually through the use of a lexical database. English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into floating synonym "seeds," each representing one underlying lexical concept. When participants "plant" their interests, each becomes a tree that "grows" over time. Each organism's leaves are linked to related streaming RSS feeds, and by interacting with their own and other participants' trees, participants create a contextual timescape in which interests can be seen growing and changing within an environment that endures.
