Child explores technology mediated experience and bond with technology. The making of this animation and subsequent website documenting the process allowed me to experience and reflect on the intimate situation of human engagement with computer-generated imagery. While struggling through the technical aspects of the software, creating the exact size of forearm, adjusting the eyebrow depth, manipulating the x, y, and z-scales in the abdomen to manifest breathing, I was also biologically engineering the same within my own womb. I felt as though there was no break in human creation; I was making, reflecting and programming, with all aspects of my body and mind.
