Underscan is a large-scale public art project commissioned by the East Midlands Development Agency in England. Thousands of “video-portraits” taken in Derby, Leicester, Lincoln, Northampton and Nottingham will be projected onto the ground of the main squares and pedestrian thoroughfares of these cities.
Frenquency and Volume consists of between 100 and 800 square metres of projected shadows which allow participants to scan the radio spectrum of the city with their bodies.
Homographies is an interactive installation featuring 144 robotic fluorescent light fixtures controlled by 7 computerized surveillance systems. As people walk under the piece, the light tubes rotate to create labyrinthine patterns of light that are “paths” or “corridors” between them.

“Pulse Park” is comprised of a matrix of light beams that graze the central oval field of Madison Square Park. Their intensity is entirely modulated by a sensor that measures the heart rate of participants and the resulting effect is the visualization of vital signs, arguably our most symbolic biometric, in an urban scale.
“Make Out” is the eight piece in the Shadow Box series of interactive displays with a built-in computerized tracking system. This piece shows thousands of internet videos of couples looking at each other.
A sensor records the pulse of the public and converts it into light flashes shown by incandescent light bulbs. At any given time the room shows the heartbeat of the 100 most recent participants
An interactive installation by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer where the pulse of participants control a 3D Fermat spiral made of 400 light bulbs.
Wavesfunction An array of chairs that move up and down electromechanically, responding to the presence of the public by creating waves that propagate over the exhibition room.
