His works investigating the mind, the media environments and material processes through theoretical and practice-based work, drew on his interest in the existentialist perception of human conditions. His works often engage the concept of ‘presence’, a theme that informs much of the debate that revolves around the concept of embodiment and disembodiment in the age of cybernetics. In his works, he addressed his concerns and ideas about a new space-time consciousness shaped by the technologies that are shaking our very psychology of presence.
