'Personalised Surface'

I thought the exhibition was intriguing. I was fascinated by Dan Hays' work and the fact that he had 'collaborated' with his namesake in America, which seems like a particularly 'digital' situation - one which could not have come about ten years ago. It was interesting to see a format I'd associated mainly with free gifts in breakfast cereals used in a fine art context and to learn about the complex processes involved in building up the holographic effect.

Bruce Gernand's digital head sculpture also stood out. It was interesting to note that there were still some inaccuracies in the digital process as opposed to the traditonal one.
