Kerstin Hovland is a video-artist with a background in computer engineering.
She is teaching programming, circuits and animation to artists, musicians and high school students through the CalArts Community Arts Partnership. She writes custom software, designs projection systems, creates algorithms for generative animations, composes music, and builds interfaces that coalesce into installations, performances, and games representing mathematical and scientific concepts as expressive forms. Hovland’s pieces stem from analysis of the way technology is used and viewed and how its presence impacts our daily lives.
