1. Alternumerics

   Alternumerics explores the relationship between language and interactivity by transforming the simple computer font into an art form that explores the fissure between what we write and we what mean. By replacing individual letters and numbers (known as alphanumerics) with textual and graphic fragments that signify what is typed in radically different ways, Alternumerics transforms any computer connected to a standard printer into an interactive artmaking installation.

2. Down Time

   Down Time consists of twenty-one stories of the computer age, connected by shared characters, events and objects. A police officer, a terminal patient, a computer technician, and a high-school guidance counselor are just a few of the characters we follow as they try (and fail) to understand themselves, their lovers, and the strangers they meet. Interactive elements allow readers to create their own paths through different stories, revealing new correspondences and connections.

6. Ray Kurzweil’s Cybernetic Poet

   RKCP reads a selection of poems by a particular author or authors and then creates a "language model" of that author’s work. The language model incorporates computer-based language analysis and mathematical modeling techniques. RKCP can then write original poems from that model. The poems have a similar style to the author(s) originally analyzed, but are completely original new poetry.

   RKCP can combine authors by creating language models using more than one author file. In addition, RKCP allows the user to create "poet personalities," each of which specifies a specific language model (which RKCP has created from one or more files of an author’s poems) and a set of parameters which control certain aspects of the poetry generation process. There can be multiple poet personalities derived from each language model. One of the parameters specified in a poet personality is the type of poems, which includes haiku, free form, and several other styles.

8. The Struggle Continues

   The work The Struggle Continues consists of monochrome text set to a jazzy soundtrack. There is one exception from this in the work, a big yellow smiley that breaks with the black and white text. The thematics of the text is about the struggle for sex: "THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES FOR STARK NAKED LOVE" and the texts play on a left side rhetoric with sentences such as: "FOR THE MASSES" and "FOR THE WORKERS". The work ends with the phrase: "MY STARK NAKED LOVE!".

   The work was presented in the Metrotech Commons in Brooklyn, NY in 2011.
