/Technplan

My practise so far is offline and online, and a mix of those as well. I am regulary using Gimp (image remixing, gifs), Audacity (recording and remixing), and some online tools like Jamwithchrome (online collaborative music), Pixlr.net (image editing) and Mozilla Webmaker (coding, video remixing etc). Additionally, I am using live streaming web services like U stream, activity which involves also the use of laptop or pc cameras. The online part, exept of the tools includes also collaboration through and within social networking sites (creative groups, collaborative images, sound or webpages created online). I mostly use Mozilla Webmaker with the participants of the workshops I am designing and implementing, but I use Thimble (included in the webmaker) as an online text editor for Html and Css. With these 2 languages I ve been experimenting the last year. At the beginning it was about creating my own website. Now I am trying to use them more creatively and design online narration works.

I am just a beginner with Blender and Processing and am interested to go further with 3d, interaction, code, and data. Im interested in 3d because I want to explore online space through objects and encocropate it in net art. I also would like to create interactive gifs works. I am thinking of them as installations with censors, cameras and any proper tool to create personalised interactive portraits. To enrich my workshops I would like to go deeper in code. I want to work with code in the workshops because I believe for kids its an essential creative skill but also an alternate approach to what can we do with text. It would be also valuable for me to be able to connect the software I use with code. Finally, based on my library science backround I have a special interest for data, digital preservation and archiving and I want to explore data art and social networking feeds. I would like to be able to create collaborative creativity tools that make use of peoples online information collection and metadata.

Interests= html5 and javascript, web crawling and indexing, more python, sensors, electronics, 3d Blender, browsers, (search) interfaces
