[RESIDENCY] Haeyoung Kim

About

For her first Roulette residency performance of the spring season, digital artist Haeyoung Kim presents Moori, an interactive collaborative environment where users participate in a real‑time narrative. Using mobile technologies and network systems, members express their ideas through instant messaging and sketches using their personal devices. Through the Moori system, audience participation is visualized and reproduced aurally. As a result, Moori allows users to become anonymous authors of an interactive storytelling experience and a unique, dynamic and algorithmic audio/visual performance.
