Andrea Polli is a digital media artist living in New York City. She
is currently an Associate Professor of Film and Media at Hunter
College, teaching in the Integrated Media Graduate Program Polli's
artwork resides in the intersection between art and science, and is
related to perception and cognition, complexity science, and human
behavior. Her projects are hybrids that feed into multiple areas of
research and often offer new 'readings' of data produced by natural
systems. Her works include a system that uses the Lorenz attractor as
a structure to guide human / computer musical improvisation (1992)
and a performance technology project, started in 1996 and titled
Intuitive Ocusonics, which is a system for performing sound by using
eye movements. Recent projects include the installation and digital
print series The Fly's Eye (2002), which deconstructs the video image
through a live movement and light analysis inspired by insect vision.
Polli currently works in collaboration with meteorological and
environmental scientists to develop systems for understanding the
weather and the impact of climate on the future.
