I
am an artist, educator and researcher working
between the fields of science and art. My practice
is often collaborative and distributed across many
mediums, including workshops,
drawing, sculpture, installation, and sound art.
Projects often take scientific experiments and
concepts as a starting point; these are then
re-created and re-invented, outside of their
scientific context. This process leads to new
lines of enquiry and experiments, which become the
basis for new artworks and workshops. The work
often incorporates live processes: generative
sound, self-contained ecosystems, or illusory
perceptions.
I
am a member of several artist collectives,
including, Proximity, para-lab,
and Owl Project. Owl
Project is known for performance [sound
art] and sculptures that combine elements of
crafts and electronics. Most notably, we were
commissioned to create ~in
collaboration with Ed Carter to devise ~Flow, as
part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad,a
floating water mill that powered an installation
full of mechanical wooden and electronic musical
instruments which responded to and data collected
from the river water.

Is it art if no one can
see it?
Artists
are in a unique position, being able to play
with assumptions and expectations, a certain
state of perception, one assumes on entering
the gallery space, a readiness to look closely
and absorb. Potentially looking closely and
reading meaning into things they would
otherwise consider banal...↩]
"...Antony Hall’s series of experiments
catches our attention, in particular
“Perpetual Puddle Vortex: Experiment No. 3”,
in which a flat dark pool of black ink visibly
and audibly drains away through a hole in its
centre. We wait to see if it will empty. We
wait some more, yet the pool remains full to
the plinth’s brim. A technical feat, yes, but
accomplished with a filmic brilliance that
lends the piece a hypnotic quality. In this
piece it was not the puddle that resembles
life, but the plinth and the gallery space;
drinking and replenishing the endless
fluid..." Tim Howard, reviewing 'On The Move'
