WIGGLE ROOM by Andy Deck
“Wiggle Room” began as playful experiments with graphics programming. – an exploration of movement, energy, cohesion, and confinement. The motion graphics evolved with inspiration from FIGMENT, circling back to the artist’s extensive prior work with interactivity. Visitors to Wiggle Room are presented with an opportunity to respond creatively to the quirky video projection using materials provided by the artist. Like many of Deck’s internet-based works (artcontext.net), the potential for participation means that the proverbial cup is half full when the doors open. Having something to do in the Wiggle Room besides stare is not only an opportunity to have fun. Offering visitors a creative role to play represents a celebration of maker culture, and an ongoing challenge to habits of passivity.
The music for Wiggle Room was produced by Nicholas D. Kent, a filmmaker and composer who has collaborated previously with both Andy Deck and Warper Party. See him at incrediblyhip.com
