Ruairi Glynn
My research is focused around interactive architecture and specifically interactive kinetic architecture. While predominantly creating installations, I'm also designing whole buildings, creating VJ software and run my blog - www.interactivearchitecture.org
I'm currently interested in building interactive kinetic architecture which usually manifests itself as some sort of built installation but occasionally turns into virtual pieces as well. I also develop [URL="http://www.ruairiglynn.co.uk/clave/"]VJ software[/URL] and run my blog [URL="http://www.interactivearchitecture.org"]interactive architecture[/URL].
My major piece to date is '[URL="http://www.ruairiglynn.co.uk/reciprocalspace/"]Reciprocal Space[/URL]' which was a room in which reconfigurable walls constantly changed their shape through the movement of pistons behind a latex skin. Its movement responded in real-time to its inhabitants creating a dance like performance.
A Graduate of MediaLab Arts (now called Digital Art & Technology) at Plymouth University, Im currently at the Bartlett School of Architecture with Unit 14, The Interactive Architecture Workshop where i'm collaborating with traditionally trained architects in building weird and wonderful things.
