CENTER FOR SPATIAL INTELLIGENCE

cSI (Physical)

We are a clubhouse/workspace for practitioners working in:
(1.) 3D & Worldbuilding: Character/arch modeling, shaders, VFX, Game Engine art, and AI for 3D worlds (think cinematography, not abstraction).
(2.) Simulation: Artificial life, agents, planetary sensing, climate/energy/geospatial analysis, climate adaptation visualization, and climate remediation robotics simulation.
(3.) Experimental Performance: Max/Supercollider, physical props, and digitally mediated movement/choreography.
General Aesthetics: Post-Cyberpunk, Eco-Fiction, Climate Fiction, Weird Fiction, Science Fantasy, Weird Fantasy, Ultra Bright/Pop preferred (but also surprise us).
Aesthetic References: Ian Cheng, Keiken, Lenia, Meuko! Meuko!, Howie Lee, Panterra, Marco Donnarumma, Joris Putteneers, Kinetech Arts, Gooooose.

In addition to a physical space, we also maintain a multiplayer desktop and VR world / forkable template for staging performances, artificial life experiments, etc. (please see left)

We are doing some experiments at Gray Area Foundation for the Arts in order to set up a CAVE environment for phygital performance
