Project Description
===================
During his residency Tuomo will explore sensor technology and physical interfaces using Max/MSP/Jitter software, in relation to investigations into controlled, interactive space and user reactions. His previous work has focused on themes of consumerism and how we create our identities through branding, as can be seen in his award-winning NEED project, a multi-platform "marketing and consumerism laboratory".

About the Artist
================
Tuomo works as an active media artist and designer in Pornainen, near Helsinki. During the last ten years he has participated in several exhibitions in Scandinavia, Central Europe, Asia and North America, presenting video and media installations including FLOAT, a sound installation based on a ship, for ISEA2004. He also works as the Creative Director of Mindworks Ltd., a Helsinki-based digital design and engineering company, where he has been a leading designer and concept developer for several international digital media productions from screen based to spatial media design. He is a member of katastro.fi art collective and m-cult media culture association.
