This weekend I'll be taking part in 'Far Lands', an exhibition in Sheffield's Millennium Galleries that celebrates  art inspired by video game landscapes.

I'm (still) in the process of making new work for this exhibition. Titled Parallel View, it is an online exhibition set within the exhibition itself. Made using only the proposals by the artists in the show, and without seeing any of their finished work, Parallel View refashions 'Far Lands' as a speculative digital landscape. Appropriating the conventions of text based adventure games, it invites visitors to explore an open ended narrative structure set within the gallery.

The exhibition runs on the 28th and 29th of June, but for those who can't make it over to Sheffield I'll post a link to the game up here after the exhibition closes.

I finally got around to upgrading my hardware to something that can accommodate my SLR, and after spending the day playing around with it I'm pretty sure it was the right decision. You can see the difference in scale between the instruments in the photo of my studio. Much more to come from this in the near future, but for now here are some highlights from today's experiments.
