SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In 2008, I began to engineer an ambitious multi-function media system, R-Shief, with the aim to attend to critical gaps in computational and textual analysis on social media. This real-time analysis, creative representation, and innovative technology became an engine. Its data, tools, and logics evolved to archive and reflect digital uprising, as well enabling it in specific ways. R-Shief became a source to produce 3D interactive media, generative art, remix video, data visualizations, and live cinema.
