Profile picture of Charlotte Young

Charlotte Young is a digital artist who explores the functioning and effects of the digital interface.

This age-old phenomenon, once expressed through spiritual practices and psychedelics, is transforming into a contemporary longing to be fully immersed in the digital sphere.

Me, Her and the Computer i plots an ongoing collaboration between myself and classical mezzo-soprano Phoebe Rayner. We have been exploring various forms of communication and dissonance: between digital and analog, traditional and contemporary, and ourselves as an artist duo. 

We have spent the past year developing a web browser.  The browser functions as a semi autonomous system, where a digital fish shoal swims within the boundaries of Craig Reynolds artificial life programme Boids. The shoal is then influenced by the data retrieved from a recorded performance of Phoebe singing Kaaji Saariaho’s, From the Grammar of Dreams III. We’ve called the work me, her and computer, perceiving it as a collaboration between three entities.
