Lynn Lukkas
Lynn Lukkas is an Assistant Professor of Time and Interactivity and the Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Art at the University of Minnesota.
Lukkas is the recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, Jerome Foundations, a Bush Foundation, and McKnight Foundation Fellowships. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally including the Walker Art Center’s “Out There Series”, the “Capetown One City Festival” in South Africa, and at the Cleveland Performance Art Festival. She spent six weeks as an artist-in-residence at the Banff Centre for the Arts New Media Co-production Residency where she developed the digital interface for a series of art works that used the biological functions of the body (breath, heart rate, brain waves, eyemovement, and electrical impulses from the skin) to control interactive installation spaces.
Abinadi Meza
Abinadi Meza is an MFA candidate in the Department of Art with an emphasis in Time
and Interactivity.
Meza is a multimedia artist whose work
explores language and non-linear narratives, often using devices or materials from our everyday world. He has shown his work both nationally and internationally--his digital
video work will be presented by RencontresInternationales in Paris, France from February 18-28, 2003 and in Berlin, Germany in July 2003.
Pete Border
Pete Border is the Senior Research Associate, Department of Physics and Astronomy.
Border has been a post-doc in the Physics department at the U for 15 years, and has recently been exploring the connection between animation and elementary physics. Recently, he has been working on a series of "virtual labs", or simulations of the real-world physics labs. The sims have two components, a real-time simulator written in Java, and a high-quality raytracer pass in Pov-ray. One of the sims has been successfully used by students, and the other three are being integrated into the usual labs this Spring.
