New project almost here!
I’ve been coding away this summer, trying to get my new social media video algorithmic curation project ready. Lots of fun with everything from neural net and computer vision-based video classification to algorithmically-based sound and picture editing. It’ll be a live stream, plus available for installations. It’s almost ready for beta, so stay tuned!

On tap for this week… Panel in LA and Performance in San Diego!
Coupla events this coming week! I’ll be speaking on panel at LA SIGGRAPH this Tuesday, Aug 11. The panel is about the “Enhanced Vision” digital video exhibition, for which I had the honor of being part of the curatorial committee. Then on Saturday the 15th, I’ll be back in San Diego performing as VJ Übergeek at San Diego Art Institute in Balboa Park. Also on the menu for the SDAI show: Dynasty Handbag and Gary Wilson… Hope to see you there! And there too!

Spoke on a panel at UCSD Women in Computing’s “Girl’s Day Out”
