Chris may have a MASc. in Computer Engineering, but his expertise expands well beyond computing into the music, design, prosthetics – and then who knows what next? His work encourages people to interact with technology in new ways, consistently blurring the boundary between human and computer.
As co-founder and lead designer of FUNtain.ca he
produces the world's only musical instruments that run on water. His hydralophones were displayed in Toronto's Nuit Blanche art festival, have done the wading pool circuit in Toronto parks and can be found permanently installed outside the Ontario Science Centre. Seriously into the field of fun, his yoyo-powered mp3 player brought home the Grand Prize in a Popular Science/Core 77 design challenge.
With plenty on his plate, Chris brings still more to the table: a solid background in cybernetics and artificial perception, having helped design and build the EyeTap visual prosthetic.
