Imagine being able to hear the pollution in the air around you.
My latest artwork turns a year of city air into sound.

We opened LiveUnion's recent breakfast event in London by turning searches into sound.
Google Trends results for the phrase 'immersive experience’ over five years are mapped to a low-pass filter. As the number grows, the filter rises and the music gets brighter.

I like how the Mondrian-like design constraints mean the blocks of sleep deprivation send out black lines into the rest of the image. It's a nice metaphor for how wrecked you feel the day after a fragmented night. Chaos radiating beyond the source.
