The EyeWriter / Zach Lieberman (US), James Powderly (US), Tony Quan (US), Evan Roth (US), Chris Sugrue (US) and Theo Watson (UK)
Inspired by the life of Tony Quan, a graffiti artist who was diagnosed with the degenerative nerve disorder ALS in 2003, Zach Lieberman, James Powderly, Evan Roth, Chris Sugure and Theo Watson developed “EyeWriter.” A reasonably-priced eye tracking system and the software that runs it make it possible to draw on a computer screen just by moving ones eyes. This gives people who have contracted a neuromuscular disease—some of whom are completely paralyzed—a way to express their creativity in spite of their condition. A “making of” feature about EyeWriter is online at vimeo.

Digital Musics & Sound Art

rheo: 5 horizons / Ryoichi Kurokawa (JP)
“rheo: 5 horizons” by Ryoichi Kurokawa (JP) is an audiovisual installation that takes sounds and images and forms them into “space-time sculptures.” Five vertical-format screens and a five-channel Surround Sound system make up an ensemble that enables individual screen-sound combinations to emerge; nevertheless, it’s their interplay that consummates a unified whole. Shots of real landscapes provide a stark contrast to worlds of digital imagery; minimalist soundscapes complement the visual impressions. Initially produced independently of each other, the audio and video components merge and blend fluidly into a holistic entity in which sounds can be seen and images heard. And thus the process to which the work’s title ultimately refers: rheos, the flow.
