I am very much interested in the art that is compatible with the body, though in many ways show its limits and how that is either a good thing or a bad thing.

My interest for the artist presentation is going to be that of the artist Stelarc or formerly Stelios Arcadiou. I found his early works in body suspension to be that of an interest for me and something along the lines of what I would like to explore.

     My idea for my project is as stands:

 A piece where there are a bunch of instruments(all made by me) with motors attached to trigger them, and the viewer when walking through them will trigger them in different ways. Almost like a theremin, though it will differ depending upon the viewers height and size. Though I hope through this to have a piece that produces different music like songs for every viewer that is personal to there own body.
