Kyle Luntz is a Brooklyn-based artist who deals with time, emergent
phenomena, illusion and memory in his multimedia installations. He makes generative
audio-visual compositions which are altered by the presence and actions of
participants. Using sound, light, acoustics, feedback systems, sensors and robotics,
his work crosses spatial and temporal dynamics, treating time as malleable material.
While research and technology are embedded in his practice, his interest lies in the
poetic potential of interactivity and experimentalism, rather than the media used to
facilitate it. He emphasizes a perspective of mutual discovery, intuitive
participation and co-authorship as opposed to that of an academic, institutional or
technical authority. He believes that the tools and experience of Art should be
accessible for all. His own approach to learning about circuitry, coding, music,
perception and physics has been largely self-directed, low-cost and open source. For
the last 6 years he has collaboratively developed and taught multimedia Art projects
with NYC public school youth and teachers, supported the work of fellow Artists and
collectives and has cultivated an inclusive approach to creating.
