Artist's Statement

This work discusses the relationship between individual and group in a real-time social system context, making tangible the invisible forces between individuals under different sociological and psychological influences. Information technology has redefined humanity's living space. The hybridisation of physical and virtual reality and its related problems, such as possession, privacy and control provide huge inspiration to this work.

Their work combines elements of computer science, visual art and storytelling, using real-world generated data to create multi-sensory experiences in the physical space, allowing people to experience the systems they create in an artistic way.
