Inspired by 19th Century botanical illustration, Singing Garden features a virtual, moonlit water garden in which the plants flourish to the tones of the singing voice.

Singing Garden is a response to the critical eye I cast on video game violence in an earlier project. I am seeking to expand the notion of what video games are and can be. In the piece, I harness the tonality and versatility of the human voice to nurture and sustain, rather than expend and destroy.
