Body Tracking, process video
This process is part of a larger project called BODY HEAT MAP. In this project, I’m focusing on mapping a person’s body heat and then using that data to create a live projection back onto their body. It’s not an easy task because translating real-time data onto a moving object comes with its own set of challenges.
The trick is to make sure that as the person moves, the projection keeps up and aligns perfectly with their body. It’s all about capturing those heat patterns and displaying them in a way that feels seamless and immersive.
Looking ahead, this installation will be part of an exhibition at the GRAND THEATRE in Groningen.
For this phase of the project, I’m using TouchDesigner, which really helps in handling the complex visual aspects and real-time interactivity I need.

Digital Dialogue
Our project is all about creating a digital dialogue.
Together with Shiona Shimizu,
I build an electronic piano where each note is a word from our
conversation. This lets us communicate through music, simply by looking
at each other. Every performance is different, as the notes and meanings
constantly change.
Shiona made
an animation that shifts and adapts, adding a visual element that’s
always changing, just like our conversation. The result is a unique
blend of music, visuals, and interaction that speaks for itself.

Nature takes selfies
Designed to capture the essence of the natural world, this camera automatically takes selfies when the wind blows, providing a glimpse into life when no one is around.

Empty Space
We aimed to research space and how people move within it. How much space does a person need to take the next step? What kind of traces do people leave behind, and does that influence the choices of others? These were the questions we posed and investigated during this experiment. How this experiment works: Each person receives yarn to carry along. The yarn will mark your route and, over time, make it more challenging for other walkers along this path.

Hanze Honours and NP3|M0BI

THE TREE OF LIFE
Another Time - THE TREE OF LIFE
For this project, we created a multimedia performance about the concept of time and growth, resulting in a unique experience where you witness THE TREE OF LIFE and its story.
This project is the result of a collaboration between students from Prins Claus Conservatory and Academie Minerva, in which the boundaries of disciplines were transcended and various forms of art were combined to create an unforgettable multimedia experience.

The performance was live-composed by Wytse Hokwerda,
Animation was created by Nienke Timmermans,
Design, structure and technology were handled by me.
This media performance was part of a multiple day festival called Terug Naar Het Begin and was shown live 3 times a day.

Moon connection project
A project that started with the saying that even though you might feel far away from someone, you can both see the same moon.
It inspired me to make an interactive moon installation where the motion sensor on moon 1 turns on the light of moon 2 and viceversa, the closer you would get too 1 the brighter 2 shines, that way you wont ever feel far away from eachother.
In the span of one week (projectweek) with help of the WERC crew I created the moon connection project from start to finish.
