Using neither hand nor any instrument other than his eyes the artist will be drawing live directly onto canvas (in this case a computer screen). As he directs his own eye movement, lines appear on the page. He will achieve this with the help of an eye tracker and software he developed in conjunction with Tobii Technology in China.
The technology works by shining infrared light straight into the eyes. The reflections are recorded by a camera through multi-algorithms and filters that allow eye movement to immediately be translated onto a screen.
Graham Fink writes:
I draw the lines in my mind’s eye and that is what develops. Sooner or later a face appears.
I work with this trusting my unconscious. The lines appear like digital charcoal markings.
Tobii is the world leader in eye-tracking, where all technology works in harmony with natural human behavior.
Tobii has transformed research in many fields and enabled communication for thousands of people with special needs
