A Human Connection.
BRIGHT SIDE STUDIOS:CREATIVE INFORMATICS:UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH:DATA LATES
This was an incredible collaboration, and a privilege to contribute to an art installation - the work of Bright Side Studios, Edinburgh.
The data-driven installation was created with content from their immersive exhibition A Human Connection, inspired by their collaborations with award-winning contemporary dance choreographer, the late Janis Claxon.
This was interactive work that left a deep impression - provoking an artistic response, a poem that would go on to be worked into the piece.

Dancing with Data.
The work was showcased at the exhibition Data Lates, which ran at the Inspace Gallery during the Edinburgh Festival in 2019.
‘A Human Connection is about simple, human pleasures. We move, we create, we love and we play. Our hearts beat. We can read the human form, and feel the flow of movement and emotion, even when it has been de-constructed and abstracted.’
- Bright Side Studios, 2019.
At the Edinburgh Festival.
Data Lates was curated by Creative informatics, Scotland, in parternship with the University of Edinburgh School of Informatics.
From the City Centre Campus building of Design Informatics, A Human Connection was projected onto Potterrow over the duration of the Festival, engaging passers by with an intersection of art, data and technology.
