That’s when it occurred to me that the experience of an art project was the thing that was most important.

Trying to represent my anxiety I created an Arduino interactive project. This was the first project where I would have the audience as participants; this informed my approach participatory art ever since. It was also the first project to signify that I wanted to also use technology as my medium primarily. This came about because I wanted to recreate my anxiety from speaking to people for the first time…
Participants would pick up the phone, press the phone and be directed to anyone in the country. Every conversation would be dependent on who picked up the phone.
“Is John there?”
“Big Dave from Chigwell”
