I'm so excited to perform at POW XIV at DNA Lounge in San Francisco during GDC! I'm doing visuals on both nights, Thursday March 12 and Friday March 13. I'm also exhibiting my installation Between on Thursday!
The full video of Rebecca Sugar's Lonely Magic Tour from MAGFest is up! I had the absolute honor of doing visuals with them and an incredible band. And special guest Estelle!

In memorandum of my 4 beautiful years curaring @nyugamecenter.bsky.social's annual No Quarter exhibition I've pulled together an archive of each of the 4 cohorts & the 16 weird & wonderful works they brought into the world

Aww thank you so much! I'm so glad you found your way there! I've started doing yoga too... too much playtesting makes my back hurt...
Between at the @mag-indiearcade.bsky.social went super well too. It was so cool to see gamers play it 24 hours a day. Special thanks to the Indie Arcade team who found and installed a new projector when mine burned out!
I'm still unwinding from MAGFest. It was my absolute pleasure to do visuals for Rebecca Sugar and friends, including surprise guest Estelle! I VJed for ESTELLE!
@aivisura.com's Secret Show at Chipspace felt really intimate and contemplative. Except for the part where we all screamed "FUCK ICE"!
Claire Kwong's schedule at MAGFest 2026 Rebecca Sugar's Lonely Magic Tour, Thursday 8:10pm on Mainstage aivi & surasshu, Friday 12:00pm at Chipspace Between all day at Indie Arcade
I'm so excited to be at MAGFest this week!
First, I'm performing visuals with Rebecca Sugar's Lonely Magic Tour, Thursday 8:10pm on Mainstage!
Then, I'll do visuals for @aivisura.com, Friday 12:00pm at Chipspace!
Finally, you can play Between all day and all night at @mag-indiearcade.bsky.social!
You can use this patch to VJ with any combination of sound and video you like!
I decided to extract pixels from a video and put each one into a meter~, rendering a video entirely with meter~ objects. I've always loved how you can arrange Max objects to make creative and unexpected layouts. I want to spotlight the meter~ object itself as a work of art.
I use Max primarily as a visualist – I manipulate and project video behind musicians as they play. I often increase the video intensity as the music gets louder. This is exactly what the meter~ object does! When I looked at meter~, I immediately noticed that I could customize multiple colors.
I was honored to be commissioned by @cycling74.bsky.social to create a Max/MSP patch that uses the meter~ object to visualize sound in a unique way.
Presenting Pixel Meter!
Here's the link to the downloadable patch, with two other amazing interpretations of meter~!

The Hand Eye Society Ball in Toronto last month was so much fun. I loved seeing everyone dress up and play Between. To quote @thehandeyesociety.bsky.social - absolute chaos and joy! More photos coming soon.
Thank you all for coming to my show with Business Pastel @wendyleftmealone.bsky.social. I collaborated with Wendy more than I've ever done before, and I livecoded with Hydra for the first time. Can't wait to collab again in 7 years (or sooner)!

Trying something new with @wendyleftmealone.bsky.social for @wonderville.nyc tonight!
I'm doing visuals at the @nyugamecenter.bsky.social party at @wonderville.nyc! I'm excited to collab with @wendyleftmealone.bsky.social 7 years after we first worked together. We've both evolved as artists so much, and we're making a unified audiovisual experience together. I will try something new!

I have several events to announce for the fall!
First up - I'm going to the Super FESTival by @thehandeyesociety.bsky.social in Toronto, Canada! Between will be exhibited at the Spooky Soiree, which will feature experimental games, alt-controllers, and a full immersive ghost-hunting quest.
See you there!
I'm giving a short talk about my game practice at the WikiGameJam opening at Hex House tonight! My games aren't directly linked to Wikipedia, but I've fallen down many Wikipedia rabbit holes. I'm excited to speak among and meet other amazing game devs.

Thank you @wonderville.nyc Alt.Ctrl Festival! Between felt right at home among the arcade cabinets.
