Bio:
Andrea Polli is a digital media artist living in New York City. She is currently an Associate Professor of Film and Media and Integrated Media Arts at Hunter College. Her work has been placed in the realm of art, in the realm of science, and in the realm of cultural crossover between the two. The science informing her work and research has primarily been in human perception, but all her projects are hybrids that feed into multiple areas of research. Like The Fly’s Eye project, her work often involves the development of new Physical human-computer interaction devices, and offers a new ‘reading’ of Physical information that brings to view unfamiliar aspects of the information.

She has exhibited widely, most recently at Cybersonica at the ICA in London, Le Centre de production DAÏMÕN in Quebec, the Politecnico di Milano University in Italy, at The Kunstgewerbe Museum in Berlin, Germany, at Apex Gallery New York City, at the V Salón y Coloquio Internacional de Arte Digital in Havana, Cuba, and at SIGGRAPH '03.

Recent awards include an upcoming 2004 Turbulence web commission funded by the Greenwall Foundation, an Honorary Mention in the 2003 UNESCO Digital Arts Award, and a prize for best artwork in Machinista 2003, Russia.

Her performance work and research is documented in the article Active Vision in the October 1999 issue of The Leonardo Journal. A retrospective article about her work from 1991-1998, Virtual Space and the Construction of Memory, is published in the Spring 98 issue of The Leonardo Journal.
