2003 DIGITAL ARTIST IN RESIDENCEAnnie BradleyThe department of Screen and Media studies at Waikato University announces the first of its Digital Artists in Residence for 2003. Annie Bradley is an Auckland-based artist. She has been working in the area of video / sound and sculpture, using a range of media from latex and paper to video and digital animation for the last eight years, exhibiting her work nationally and overseas. She completed her Masters in Fine Arts (First Class Honours) in 2002. Her interests include animal trace patterns as a kind of language, the way chemicals effect the brain/body to create new mappings, new patterns of behaviour and current scientific and technological knowledge. In her most recent Installation work Lucid Interval, she as the starting point an A4 piece of paper that had been shredded by snails, this was scanned and used as the basis for a Digital animation. Annie Bradley will be using the resources of the University to generate a new installation work based on questions about how language is acquired and how it operates. The installation will manipulate texts through internet translation services multiple times, like a game of 'Chinese Whispers. "This process of folding language has a parallel to the Origami I'm making, there is a crease pattern or blueprint for each design, but with language it's mysterious, we can't find it." Supported by Waikato University and Creative New Zealand, the Digital Artist in Residence programme reflects the Screen and Media's Department's strong critical and creative focus on the media of the twenty-first century.
