I connect art and technology to make people move.
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!

My work will also be featured at the Rode Hond Festival in Leuven, Belgium - an arts festival for families with children from 0 to 12 years old. The city theatre will become one big play zone with movement games for kids of all ages. This is my first time putting on an installation remotely!

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.

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.

I will show Between at the first ever Alt Ctrl Festival at @wonderville.nyc on August 24! I’m looking forward to playing all these games!

I’m here at MAGWest @magwestofficial.bsky.social! I’m thrilled to do visuals for @sammusmusic.net and @aivisura.bsky.social tonight. I admire these musicians so much and it’s a pleasure to do something special for each of them.

I’m on back to back 6:50pm to 8:50pm PT! Streaming twitch.tv/magfest!

I’ll be at @amazefest.bsky.social in Berlin May 14-17 2025 supporting the nominee synch.live! Synch.Live is a participatory art experience and cutting edge brain science experiment. I’m so excited to be part of it and have an excuse to come back to Berlin. Hope to see you there!

Accessibility is so important for alt ctrl games! I designed my games to be playable by as many bodies as possible.

At Playtime, I was so happy to see them played by people of every age and size, as well as people in wheelchairs and with vision impairments.

Interpose at Playtime in Bruges! I loved seeing people careen around the room with their hands bound together.

The ballet of Chromapose 💃🏻

Chromapose is 7 years old! I’m glad it can still move people.

Here are my favorite shots from my solo exhibition at Playtime in Bruges. New poster design by @kjmartinet.bsky.social !

Climbed up onto the catwalk to capture my exhibition from above.

Thank you so much to the Playtime Festival in Bruges for hosting my first solo exhibition! It was an absolute dream to see everyone playing Between, Light Touches Skin, Interpose, and Chromapose. I’ll post more photos and videos in the coming days!

Welcome to the 🤜 Claire Kwong Arena 🤛

I'm showing Between, Light Touches Skin, Chromapose, and Interpose all in the same room at the Playtime Festival in Bruges, Belgium! It will be my first solo exhibition. It’s going to be complete chaos and I can’t wait.

I love this picture from my artist talk at PlayBern, where I made people play Interpose. I swear they got on the floor on their own!

I had so much fun doing visuals at the Overkill Festival @sickhouse-nl.bsky.social for Assyouti in a collaborative set with Julian van Aalderen of the C-men. It was my first VJ collaboration ever and it was a great experience! We remixed each others videos in MaxMSP (me) and Amiga (him).

I came to the Overkill Festival because I won the Ultimate IndieMash contest held by @sickhouse-nl.bsky.social back in May. I finally got my beautiful trophy in person last month! I brought it back home to New York and it’s sitting on my plant cabinet now 🦄

I led a workshop called Prototyping with Touch and Intimacy at the Overkill Festival @sickhouse-nl.bsky.social. I talked through the process of prototyping my games, and invited the audience to play, critique, and iterate on other movement games.

I'm back in NYC and finally sorting through all the photos from my travels. I'll be posting highlights in reverse order, from the Overkill all the way back to A MAZE Sheffield. I miss touring and hope I can do more in 2025!

First up is Between at the Overkill Festival last month in Enschede, NL!
