Work Series

Time's Up has shown a large number of works as individual objects and as complete environments internationally. The exhibitions fall into four main phases:

  • Hyperfitness Studio (1997-2004), media machines for the whole body[1][2]
  • Spherical Projection Interface SPIN (2000-2006), premiered at the Ars Electronics Festival 2000[3] achieved artistic and technical attention.[4][5]
  • Sensory Circus (2002-2006).[6]
  • Since 2007 main works have been around narrative and living environments.[7]


The group has been involved in an extensive network of European projects, working closely with groups such as FoAM, M-ITI and ATOL [8]. Matt Heckert worked closely with the group in the first year, members of the group have worked closely with Chico MacMurtrie within the Amorphic Robot Works.


Publications

The Anchortronic series of residencies culminated in the release of the same named DVD on the Dutch-German label Staalplaat.[9] The book "PARN: Physical and Alternate Reality Narratives" was published in 2012 at the end of the project with the same name. The books "Futurish" and "Turtles and Dragons" were created using the book sprint methodology and published in short runs on demand.
