Projects

Pivot

A field of semi-intelligent see saws. I made an iOS app that runs on an iPad housed within the body of the see saw. The app parses audio input, translates text, determines responses using natural language processing and responds with machine-spoken audio.

Launched Sep 2017 pivot.center

In collaboration with
Madeleine Flynn and Tim Humphrey

Am I Ever Going To See Your Face Again

A semi-intelligent screen-based doppelgänger. I am building an iOS app to run on a large format iPad positioned in front of the viewer's face. A combination of speech recognition, facial recognition, natural language processing and real-time video splicing will produce a talking reflection.

Currently in development, launching Feb 2021.
