Multi-sensory Interactions

I began with Audio-Visual — creating media that responds to sound and language.
Then I brought the body into the loop, turning movement into a dialogue with technology.

Now, I explore audio-visual-haptic systems that invite broader audiences to feel interaction

beyond sight, beyond sound, into the realm of embodied experience.
