HA! .. am in the teesside innovation centre, a lurvly state-of-da-art 

business unit loosely connected to the University of Teesside....in 

an office unit in one of the other areas is a digital artist(e), who 

has just embarked on a project to create 'A Director / Touch Screen 

based Commenatry' on Teesside - it's people, and the area itself.  

The crux of which involves a series of motion sensitive sensors that 

control the 'experience'....such as the sound and graphical flow, 

according to bodily movement near to the unit.


- It is very nice though -


....no...it is....really.....
