Almost There

“Almost There” is a series of interactive self-portraits made by Polina Filippova, an artist working across video-related mediums, performance and painting.

I helped Polina design and build the interactive system for the portraits which involved a Raspberry Pi, an ultrasonic range sensor, a video player based on info-beamer and some custom code written in Python and Lua.

The project has been featured in several exhibitions in London, UK, including the one in the Cynthia Corbett Gallery.
