=========================================
Lansdown Lecture by Anthony Rowe, Squidsoup.

Anthony Rowe is an artist, researcher and founder member of experimental
digital arts 
group Squidsoup.

Squidsoup combine sound, physical space and virtual worlds to produce
immersive and 
emotive headspaces. They explore the modes and effects of interactivity,
looking to make 
digital experiences where meaningful and creative interaction can occur.
Above all, they 
aim to allow participants to take active control of these experiences.

Their work has been shown at several dozen festivals, seminars and galleries
around the 
world including Late at Tate Britain, several Future of Sound events,
Futuresonic, ISEA, 
Sonar, SIGGRAPH and, most recently, Late at the V&A.

Anthony will be showing and discussing several Squidsoup projects, and
framing them 
into a narrative that leads to his current research into interaction and
visualization 
techniques in three physical dimensions.

Squidsoup's work is documented online at www.squidsoup.org.
