Helen & George

George and Helen are recent graduates from the University of West of England where they completed a Media Practice degree both specialising in interactive media. George and Helen's work focuses on the development of applications that experiment with the formation of narrative, utilising the potential of the internet as a vast library of knowledge, opinion and culture they re-represent findings in the public space.

George

George's interests are wide and varied although they generally revolve around making beautiful things with technology. Recent activities include, writing VJing software in Pure Data, hand building a multitouch surface, working with user generated content using Action Script, PHP and mySQL, getting tangled up with his Arduino cables, creating fractal based motion graphics using VVVV, creating webbots to discover what the world is wishing for and collaborating with London based company Musion to create holographic installations.

In his spare time George likes to party hard.

Helen

Helen is one of the most passionate and energetic people that you will ever meet. Coupled with her people and organisational skills she makes one hell of a producer. Over the last three years Helen has produced numerous works across film and new media platforms, as well as supporting the studio development team at Team Rubber. She is deeply immersed within the Bristol media industry, supporting events such as The Interesting Games Festival, Venn Festival and QuWack(e). She has also been a regular assistant at the Bristol Media events for the last two years, where hundreds of the cities creatives come together for networking and socialising.

When Helen is relaxing she is usually spending time at home baking cakes, getting her head around new media theory, playing Sim City, looking at the constructs of language, or more often than not, reinstalling windows.
