Exuviae
2007-2011


Exuviae: an animal's cast or sloughed skin, especially that of an insect larva.

The human-like molted skins are left behind by a creature dependent on life in the trees to survive. 

These tree installations began during my artist-in-residence at the Mary Anderson Center in Indiana. A permanent installation of Exuviae are on view at Coffman Park in Dublin, Ohio. Other installations have been exhibited at Yew Dell Gardens in Crestwood, Kentucky.
**UPDATE** 2022
In the summer of 2022, the Dublin Arts Council invited me to return to Dublin, Ohio to recreate 3 of the 4 Exuviae sculptures that have since fallen from the trees. I spent 2 weeks constructing sturdier sculptures before re-installing them in their original trees in Coffman Park. Please check them out along with all the works in Dublin’s award winning public art collection. Find out more at www.dublinarts.org/publicart/
I also led 2 public workshops on the tape casting method, installed an original Exuvia in the sycamore in front of DAC, and interacted with visitors in my outdoor studio.

Map - overall bike routes for Bike Sense Louisville project




BikeSense.net - Project site including data visualizations, sound &#38;amp; info


Bike Sense Louisville is a public art project centered around bicycle use in greater Louisville, Kentucky. Sensor units were given to 100 Louisville cyclists (the Citizen Cyclist Volunteers) and their location, air quality and temperature data was translated into sound that played on speakers on Louisville’s pedestrian Big Four Bridge. The resulting data-set is open to the public and provided to Metro Louisville Government at the end of the project to help in developing further improvements in bike infrastructure and planning.


 

This project corresponds to Louisville's ambitious 20-year multi-modal Move Louisville plan:
 
[The plan] takes a holistic approach to the city’s
transportation system, which is a $5 billion asset that includes roadways, sidewalks, bike networks and trails. The top two priorities identified in the plan are fixing and maintaining the existing infrastructure and reducing the number of miles that Louisvillians drive by providing and improving mobility options.
 
As a citizen who wants to see this plan succeed, I wanted to create a project that could add to the conversation and hopefully expose these important issues to the public.

As an artist, I approach the subject of infrastructure and planning from a different angle. Many cities gather data through fixed sensors and phone surveys, but by adding the community involvement and creative component of art, the behind-the-scenes process gets exposed in a playful and engaging way.

The sensors in Bike Sense Louisville will collect each Citizen Cyclist Volunteer’s location, temperature, and level of air quality counting VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in real-time. The idea was to get an glimpse of where bikers are going and when, all while observing tiny changes in weather and air quality throughout the city. The volunteers did not have their specific location and personal information shared during the project. Instead, the maps and sounds help illustrate general information about fluctuations in the number of cyclists on the roads and how the temperature and air quality changes across Louisville.

The sound generated from the sensors will act like a wind chime. The more Citizen Cyclist Volunteers are on the roads, the more notes played. The tones were short when it was cold outside, and longer the warmer it got. The higher the VOC count, the more the chord would distort. A 3-note chord will represent one cyclist and the notes were randomly selected so that each sensor was unique. So like a wind chime is louder and rings more frequently the stronger the wind, the Bike Sense sound was more complex when there were more Citizen Cyclist Volunteers on the roads and trails.

WholeCommunityKY is a digital platform focused on the cultural drivers of trust, hope, and belonging with active and retired teachers in Jefferson County and Breathitt County, Kentucky.&#38;nbsp; 

Together, through an arts-engagement designed by Todd C. Smith and the site’s Action Groups, we will examine the actions and questions that active and retired teachers experience in their everyday lives, and facilitates connections and group discussions. This will include looking at the belonging of participants, and conclude with recommendations about how we best move forward as a community in support of, and in partnership with, our teachers.

Many organizations have come together to make the initiative possible. IDEAS xLab is working with the University of Louisville’s Center for Creative Placehealing and Center for Health Organization Transformation, both based in the UofL School of Public Health &#38;amp; Information Sciences (UofL SPHIS). UofL SPHIS faculty and students will also be involved, providing research support and a four-day public health training boot camp.&#38;nbsp; 

WholeCommunityKY and the&#38;nbsp;Kentucky Artist Innovator in Health&#38;nbsp;Residency are made possible with support from the National Endowment for the Arts and a County Health Rankings &#38;amp; Roadmaps Community Collaborative Learning Fund award.

This website was developed with support from the Public Health Department of Garrett County in Maryland, as an adaptation of their Universal Community Planning Tool (UCPT).</description>

Diverse Ground
ProjectHEAL - Hero+Shero Journey
January 2018


Diverse Ground - A Creative Science Project
A collaboration with IDEAS xLab and Chris Rasheed, a 6th grade language arts teacher at Meyzeek Middle School in Louisville, Kentucky.&#38;nbsp;
The 10-day workshop covered the history of the Smoketown Neighborhood, soil science and comparative experiment, environmental justice discussion, and poetry writing exercise to turn their newfound knowledge into art.&#38;nbsp;
After learning about the importance of their school neighborhood as historically black and formerly filled with brick factories, the students dug up soil samples in the school yard and in a community garden across the street. In groups, the students dilluted each soil sample with water to discover the constituent parts and make conclusions and connections about the environment, social justice, and more.&#38;nbsp;
Then the students were guided through a poetry writing workshop that helped them turn their knowledge into metaphors and similes to construct short poems. These poems were then performed on the final day in a Poetry Slam.

Project HEAL - Hero+Shero Journey is a four-part artist residency. Diverse Ground is the soil component of the air, water and soil environmental justice initiative. The fourth and final portion of the project was a comic book/policy initiative created by the 150 6th grade students at Meyzeek.&#38;nbsp;
The soil science part of the project was advised by Kurt Mason, Lead District Conservationist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service of Kentucky, who helped with the scope and intent of the project.

Background of Project Concept

(from the Project HEAL Health Impact Assessment)

“Hero+Shero Journeys (JOURNEYS) will explore the potential for combining the
power of community with art, data science, mythology and storytelling to engage 6-
8th graders, at Smoketown's Meyzeek Middle School, in co-creating projects with
neighborhood leaders that can positively impact environmental health and social
determinants. The project will be led by spoken-word artist Chris Rasheed, a
teacher at Meyzeek Middle School. Ultimately, the project should demonstrate the
potential for turning middle schools across the US into cultural hubs for civic
innovation in health policy and give youth an increasing role in policy making
through the arts. The projects will focus on the 1,100 6th-8th graders who attend
Smoketown's Meyzeek Middle School, and their families.
JOURNEYS will create an in class / out of class artist residency program that
engages artists and their artistic practices to raise awareness around
environmental health justice, and to teach science, technology, engineering and
math (STEM) subjects. Students will create their own Hero+Shero journey.
Through this project, they will better understand how the quality of air, water and
soil impact their health and wellbeing. Furthermore, JOURNEYS will engage
students to think critically about how their collective voice could be focused to
advocate for policy change.”

Inward Out: Spontaneous Reverberations
2016

Masters Thesis exhibition
University at Buffalo, New York
Department of Art

Exhibited on April 30th 2016 at Silo City in Buffalo, NY
Sponsored by the Techné Institute with a generous grant.

Inward Out: Spontaneous Reverberations is an interactive sound and light display in an empty grain silo, a guided walk through a railway field choked with vegetation, and a culminating encounter at the oldest cottonwood tree on the property which is connected back to the silo by a tin­can telephone. This experiential artwork envelopes the audience in a series of sensorial engagements that shed light on how our social actions are entangled with an ecological network of spontaneous plants.

You are welcome to read the written part of my thesis here.

The technology portion of the the project utilized two Arduino microprocessors, an accelerometer, XBee radio transmitters, a 4-switch relay for the halogen flood lights, and a subwoofer.</description>

Heart Light
2016
2 rooms, an interactive work of connection and disconnection.

One participant enters the closet, places the helmet on their head and readies their finger to push the button on the wall. The instructions prompt them to mimic the light. 

The other participant in the larger dance room places their finger on the "Touch" button. That button senses their heart rate. 

The heart rate is translated to pulsing light inside the other participant's helmet. When the light pulses, they push their button. 

That button turns the light on and off in the dance room creating a light show on the mirror ball.</description>

Good Guy Glove
2015

Research and development of physical sensing system that can monitor the pressure of points of contact. Starting with a handshake with the intention to scale up to a more complex system to evaluate tree-climbing. 

Sensors were handmade from pressure sensitive fabric, conductive thread, copper tape, copper wire, and faux leather.

Data was processed using a Beagle Bone Black single board computer, programmed using Python.

2015

I walked barefoot from my home to school connecting as much grass as possible. I tracked my path using GPS, photographed every 500 steps, documented sound, counted my steps with a pedometer, timed the duration, measured the elevation change, and took a print of my feet every mile. 

The resulting interactive installation allowed the viewer to listen to the sounds of my steps as they stepped barefoot on similar surfaces of my walk. Utilizing an arduino-based MakeyMakey, when the grass pads were touched, the slideshow on the TV monitor progressed through the photographs of my walk. The foot prints were suspended just to the right.
