Bioluster is a collaboration of the Accelerator Group. Participants in this project include artists Jite Agbro & Meghan Trainor, programmer Stephen Koch and carpenter Patrick Kerr.

Bioluster is a large-scale tactile interface that offers simple, yet not immediately obvious, methods of triggering different series of sound samples. This unique interface, created with RFID & Flash technology, is paired with materials and shapes that leave the audience with a tugging sense of unwarranted nostalgia for a system that has never existed. This project has grown out of Trainor’s long use and exploration of RFID as an artistic medium to examine our changing physical relationship to computing.

Bioluster premiered on December 8, 2007 at Strange Things People Do With Electricity, an art exhibition at 911 Media Arts Center curated by Dorkbot/Seattle.

Accelerator Group is a variable group of artists, programmers, choreographers and others who collaborate to create performances, artistic prototypes, installations, and other works that explore emerging technologies in the context of material interfaces and components. Members reside in Seattle and New York with distance collaboration a key element of their creative process. Current experiments include using Flickr as a communication and documentation tool.
