In this episode, our host, Hilary Knight, speaks with Daniel Iregui, new media artist and founder of Montreal-based digital art studio Iregular, on origin stories, the value of giving audience control over the artwork, testing and R&D; and the concept of ‘play’ in interactive art, online and in-person.
Guest bio:
Daniel Iregui is a Montreal-based New Media artist who creates interactive sculptures, immersive spaces, and architectural interventions using technology as both a tool and an aesthetic. He works with the infinite and random combinations produced by interactive systems that the audience influences and transforms; the interaction between the human being and technology has always been his focus since the very beginning. His early educational and professional journey is marked by receiving a post-graduate diploma in Interactive Multimedia from Sheridan College in Toronto (2005), followed by a few work experiences in the field: he was Lead Web Developer at Zemoga INC (2005-2007) and Lead Interaction Designer at Moment Factory (2007-2009).
