In my current work I am using new technology as a catalyst for social interaction. The work presents a widened understanding of what a public space consists of and how each individual's use of the space expands it's meaning.

My project consists of a physical drumming machine which is controlled by the readings of a GPS enabled HP iPAQ handset. A performer is outfitted with this wearable location based drumming machine. While walking and occupying public places the GPS data is used to analyze the performer's behavior. The collected data is then converted in to varying drumming patterns

It is important to me to combine the virtual Mediascape layer with a real world intervention to create a stronger connection between the two. The performer will function as point of public attentions and as link between the virtual and real layers of public space.
