The Emote Project (Animation, 50 minutes, 12 chapters, 2017) is about feelings, brain waves and real-time experimental animation, Data recorded from EEG brainwave signals were analyzed for emotional patterns and reinterpreted to generate 20 animated chapters. We used non-lyrical music clips of known emotional class (such as happy, sad, exciting, scary, etc) provided by the Computer Science and Engineering Team.

An ongoing public art installation, 15 x 2 meter LED interactive wall in a public corridor in Singapore. It is in a semi-exterior hallway at a university of more than 50,000 students, faculty and staff, at least 5,000 people see the MAN installation daily.
