Lifeboat
LifeBoat is a collaborative work by artists Nigel Helyer, Sarah Jane Pell, Ionat Zurr and Oron Catts presented at ISEA2004. Squelch created the website for the work and programmed the system to enable the creation of personalised psychological profile graphs and accompanying DNA melodies. JMusic, JAVA, and Flash were used to implement the system.

Lifeboat explores concepts of sustainability, survival and notions of biological, cultural and ideological re-generation, and its obverse, the degradation of life and all its manifestations. During ISEA2004 the project was contained within a life-sized lifeboat.

You can take the online Total Biological and Psychological Processing System to generate your personalised melody here.

  Sub_scape
Sub_scape was the second work Squelch collaborated on to be presented at ISEA2004. Created for media artists Sarah Waterson and Kate Richards, Sub_scape is a real-time interactive system that transcodes data sets from the Baltic Sea (bathymetry, pollutants, fish finds, seatemperature) with video footage from the Australian desert. The system was developed by Jon Drummond of Squelch using Max/MSP+Jitter.

"Checklist for an Armed Robber" - ABC Radio Play and interactive Website
Checklist for an Armed Robber is both a two-part radio drama and interactive website paralleling the 2002 Moscow theatre siege with an armed bookshop hold-up in Newcastle, Australia. Squelch worked extensively on the project throughout both the research and final production stages collaborating on concept development, spatial audio design and Flash Action Script coding.

Supported by ARC seed funding from UTS, the project explores the blending radio drama and online media for the first time. The project is the outcome of a research collaboration between ABC New Media, ABC Radio Drama and the University of
Technology.

UTS and the ABC are pursing an Australian Research Council linkage grant to continue the collaboration and build on work done for Checklist for an Armed Robber.
