Love the water colours and my overall impression is that it looks like something you would find in a modern art gallery.

It was really interesting to hear what you had to say about it in the hangout, too :)

I have since been thinking about nostalgia and the digital and am considering writing a review of the Hanx Writer app, that apperently turns your iPad keyboard into an old typewriter, using sound effects and haptic feedback…

There is, though, I’m sure, some mileage to be made from ‘finger of my hand’ being part of this supposedly abstract mindspace (which of course it is, through keyboards and mouseclicks and touchpads, and putting together wiring and all that stuff).

I think the ‘watercolour’ representation is really clever here too. The images don’t appear overtly ‘digital’, but play with the idea of being ‘analogue’, thus troubling the distinction it seems. Also, was using your finger another comment on the ‘digital’? :)

You demonstrate how digitisation is never just a copy – always a kind of interpretation.
