Andrine

Andrine @ Art-Cels © Jen Allanson

Andrine is a manifestation of video art with computer and telecommunications technology. She was conceived to explore the interactive possibilities afforded by responsive virtual entities deployed in public settings. Interaction with Andrine is via SMS. Andrine uses a database, developed as part of a larger project on corpus linguistics, to parse a message in order to extract its emotional content. She then responds in a visually-appropriate manner.
