Notes for Walking (the space in between time), [is] a locative artwork and app developed for Middle Head National Park, an abandoned naval fort in Sydney, NSW, and [was] presented during the Sydney Festival, 2013. In Notes for Walking, thirteen short video notes are electronically tagged to features of landscape, asking audiences to contemplate notions of waiting, time and impermanence as they walk the site. The project emerges from doctoral research into Buddhist pilgrimage, meaningful landscapes and the goeika poems of the 88 Temple pilgrimage of Shikoku, Japan, and the ways in which contemporary approaches to landscape and spatial narrative may intersect with earlier practices.

I Am A Singer is an experiment in multimedia writing, a search into approaches towards style and form, narrative structure, and notions of engagement within a multimedia context. Concerned with memory and identity, it tells the fictional story of an amnesiac who happens to be famous. Structurally, I Am A Singer is a narrative built of fragments, of small, discrete but intersecting sequences, mirroring the fragmented consciousness of the singer. It operates on a number of levels - as a pure tale about an amnesiac singer trying to regain her memory, and as a broader exploration of identity and remembrance.

The nine signs for Ogaki in this work originate in Japan during a residency in September 2010 at IAMAS an Art & Science research institute in Japan. During this month I surveyed the small town of Ogaki via bicycle and identified locations suited to digital intervention. Decoding the space, its history and inhabitants to provide context for a new set of codes. These codes were embedded in a work entitled noemaflux developed on site during my time in Japan. This work is an interactive work that creates new experiences of urban space and different ways of seeing the city. The title expresses this meaning.

The World Machine originates in Ludea. Its function is to transmutate the city streets to provide a suitable habitat for Ludean lifeforms. At its core are seven tags that appear in scenes that are at once familiar and alien simultaneously read by humans and machines augmenting and mutating urban space.

Autograf is an asemic writing system that generates tags by recombining marks and gestures used in graffiti tagging. The languages generated by this process are both familiar and alien its tags look like letters but remain indecipherable. It is constantly and rapidly reinscribing itself as if being generated by a gang of autonomous mecha-graf artists. The tags consume and erase one another and those that survive reproduce with one another to create stylistic hybrids. The processes behind this interaction are modelled on an experimental ecosystem made of language tags have energy, they live and die, replicate, and may steal or give energy to their neighbours. This ecosystem is sonified the generated soundtrack reflects the ebb and flow of energy in the system.

Colony is part artificial lifeform, part icon of a digital media landscape. The weathered totems use light and sound to communicate with one another in response to human presence. Affect the colour and sound patterns of the artwork by walking through the environment or playing the totems with your iPhone.
