I've been a professional "media artist" (at least in the eyes of the IRS) since 1980. My particular area of experience may be called "immersive place representation," exploring how new media technologies can be used to expand and broaden our sense of place, particularly real (rather than fantasy) places.

    "Moving Camera Studies" investigates why our personal sense of looking around and moving through space differ from the gaze of a camera. The method of investigation is through using a hand-held digital camera along with GPS and angular sensors, then relying on extensive handiwork, frame by frame, after shooting. The intention is explore aesthetic potential in the fastest, least constrained way. The goal is to become fluent in what can be done, and to make an installation.

    "Digital Stereoscope" explores how new media can be used to expand and broaden our sense of place, particularly for real (rather than fantasy) places. It specifically focuses on means of "immersive place representation" such as stereoscopy and interactive panoramics. Recording and exhibiting such immersive imagery is a "chicken-and-egg" problem requiring a commitment to work at both ends.
