- NOUMINA presents a story, an abstract narrative, a cinematic journey through the cosmos. From a twinkly gaze at the stars, we are confronted with a presence, a geometric object, and are taken on a journey to its domain. Through super hi-resolution images of the Universe, the participant experiences multi-dimensional layers, geometric viewports to other-worldly realities. Accompanied by a hypnotic original score, the piece swoons and arcs over multiple moods and territories, finishing back at our home world, again at the ...Read More

Man's landing on the moon opened up a new consciousness for humans: for the first time we saw our planet as a whole, rather than a collection of divided countries and continents. Similarly, a new perception of ourselves has emerged with the proliferation of high quality satellite imagery, such as those provided by Google Earth. We now have access to the collective Space Eye, and possess the ability to zoom and focus at any one scale of the fractal. NASA provides ...Read More
Audio is a live recording from the set, however the video recording didn't turn out so great, so this is instead a rough mock-up of how it went. Obviously a lot of the improvisations that took place visually on the night are missing, but this will give you an idea. Something of a compilation of video work from 2008 :+ a lot of digicam movies from my travels, weaved into some samples from 'The Future is Not What is Used ...Read More

RDB put me onto this one. A student entrant into the 2009 IGF - a whole ream of games to chek out I didn't even know existed! This is a great concept, by Ian Dallas, a game where you have to paint a white 3d space in order to navigate, all the while the moody soundtrack gives the games a very ominous feel. Read More
Just received this email from the 'YouTube Content Identification Team' to inform me that my final year Diploma video piece from Swinburne 'exp.05' has been pulled due to copyright infringement. The piece was set to a track by Nine Inch Nails from the album The Fragile. Ironically, NIN are these days calling on artists to use their free music to create free tunes for upload to YouTube! No Matter! Check it out on Vimeo! exp.05 from M. Leaf-Tierney on Vimeo. The email: Dear VintageSystem, Video ...Read More
'Death To Yevgeny Nourish' is an installation work being shown from Oct 20th - 31st at the 'New Genres' group show, at RMIT School of Art Gallery in Melbourne, Australia. The piece uses a live fish housed inside a tank to which a small LCD screen is attached. The screen flickers visuals, while the fish (a Japanese Fighter fish) swims jubilantly ~ creating a wispy silhouette against an ambient rainbow of colour. Read More

I've just launched my website http://mattleaf.com ! In the coming weeks I'll be moving this blog over to Wordpress, which will hopefully come out with a similar look to the website. It's also my pleasure to announce my first online (and debut) release of music as 'Sinuso Dial'. Entitled 'Biology', the albums compositions consist of processed guitar and field recordings which result in a blend of ambient, warm distortion and subtle electronica. You can download it for free here. Read More
I just love this review of Dragon's Lair for NES. Kudos to Nils Koster for showing it to me. It's totally on the money. I owned this game as a kid and used to play it for hours. I could never get past that bridge. I think I did get through the door once but as soon I got to the next level I died and got Game Over :( Read More
