Tim Boykett - The Feeling of Being Here, Doing This, Right Now:
Real-time Real-world Interactivity
Tim Boykett was born and grew up in Australia. He is a founding member
of the internationally acclaimed Time’s Up collective, who produce
innovative art installations/experiences. His interests are between
the areas of mathematics and media art, performance and interaction.
Tims talk will introduce Time’s Up’s body of work, from the
physicality of the Hyperfitness Studio and the enclosed real
virtuality of SPIN (Spherical Projection Interface), to the Sensory
Circus and the online game environment experiments that challenge our
notion of physical spaces.
Tim will describe both the ideas behind these works as well as the
hardware and software details. Tools will be introduced briefly and
techniques for interactive development will be discussed. This
presentation will be of interest to those interested in compelling
experiences in mixed reality worlds.
Tim Boykett’s attendance is sponsored by the Australian Network for
Art and Technology (ANAT), as part of the the Creativity and Cognition
Studios /ACID symposium, ENGAGE: Interaction, Art, and Audience
Experience.

Paint & Light, Day of transformation
Posted in Electronic Art 3rd year on November 8th, 2006The time came to pull down the Paint and Light Project for 2006. What to do with the paint. The Paint from the Paint and Light Project 2004 became some what of a test case to see how durable the acrylic paint actually is. Interesting results.
This time I built five frames and out of the five we created 3 sculptural paintings. This process removed us from the immersive 3 dimensional painting and placed us on the other side of 3 dimensional space. As we now occupied a new space with regards to the paint, our relationship to the paint was renewed .
