This month at Dorkbot Canberra we welcome Josh Wodak.
Josh will be presenting the Interaction+Interface Designs he made
for the collaborative interactive installation ‘Emergence’
(www.buildyourownbeing.com). He will be showing a range of Designs that
formed different techniques+strategies for exploring the themes+issues
within ‘Emergence’ and in interactive electronic art at-at-large. The
prototype of ‘Emergence’ premiered at the Sydney Opera House (SOH) Studio
in 2005 and the full version was staged in 2007 at the SOH Studio,
Melbourne Arts House and Canberra Street Theatre.
