1-Bit music is the first release by Tristan Perich. It is a CD jewel case cointaining hand-assembled electronics programmed to generate an album of low-fi electronic music. One bit of data is the smallest unit of digital information, representing a binary state: on or off, true or false. Using this minimal waveform for audio, Perich creates music that is conceptually and essentially electronic.

Newsmap is an application that visually reflects the constantly changing landscape of the Google News news aggregator. A treemap visualization algorithm helps display the enormous amount of information gathered by the aggregator. Treemaps are traditionally space-constrained visualizations of information. Newsmap’s objective takes that goal a step further and provides a tool to divide information into quickly recognizable bands which, when presented together, reveal underlying patterns in news reporting across cultures and within news segments in constant change around the globe.
Newsmap does not pretend to replace the googlenews aggregator. Its objective is to simply demonstrate visually the relationships between data and the unseen patterns in news media. It is not thought to display an unbiased view of the news; on the contrary, it is thought to ironically accentuate the bias of it.
