Neil C Smith

My work explores ways of opening up and challenging the nature of creativity itself, in particular through the use of technology. Working sonically and visually, solo and in collaboration, I create live improvised performances, and context-specific generative and interactive installations. Breaking away from familiar uses of technology as a reproductive medium, much of my work exists in real-time and real-space - each moment a unique and unrepeatable experience.

Integrally related to my artistic practice, I also work as a technologist and adviser with artists and organisations, specialising in free open-source technology.
