Tyler Stefanich is a Minnesota artist whose work draws on memory and unconscious habits of interpretation, using analog/digital-technologies to dislodge the viewer’s sense of normalcy.
His residency will focus on developing a series of projects that explore the internet as a collective memory, constructing real-time visualizations using HTML5 and other related emerging technologies. His main focus will be research and development of frameworks for a live generative evolving game constructed out of assets from the internet.
Tyler will be in residence at 20 Wellington Road for April and May 2012.
Blast Theory's newest commission Ghostwriter is now open at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM) in Exeter. Blast Theory has been working with curator Vivienne Gaskin for this commission which is part of the New Expressions Programme. Ghostwriter is an audio tour for mobile phones. To take part you call in and a woman acts as your guide through the museum. She opens up to you as she invites you to walk with her. She describes her life and some of the most important objects in it.
