Introduction:
Hi, I’m Kristin. I grew up on the Big Island of Hawaii, started my undergraduate degree in Portland, OR as a Biology Major and finished in the Bay Area with a BFA in New Media Arts. Since moving to NYC I have become extremely interested in the ontology of cities, the richness of urban life, ethnographic inquiry, urban infrastructure and the subtleties that transform our experience of space. My work primarily engages public space and cognitive frameworks through interventions in the urban experience. I am most compelled by environmental design, social innovation and playful means.
Personal story about my first encounter with portable locative data:
I resisted getting a cell phone for many years, in a vein similar to my current polarity to Facebook, but finally caved in what I think was 2001/2002. Although prior to consumer integrated GPS, I immediately experienced a Portable Navigation System via a quick call to my dad. His time zone was conveniently 3 hours behind mine, so I could ring him at 1AM exhausted after a concert when I took a wrong turn in San Francisco trying to get back to Santa Cruz and he would look up my location (online/map) and direct me in real time while driving home.
