"...while many new media artists artists are so conceptionally convoluted that few get the hyper-irony, Garancs' work is viceral and tangible: a 3D datascape of moving lines, colours and information that can be set up to interact with moving bodies. Viva networked acid for the wired generation!

Garancs creates crazy stereoscopic projections - like what you'd hallucinate the Net to look like in William Gibson's Neuromancer. Call it the new phychedelia for the SMS kiddies, or the reprogramming of our cyberpunk fantasies with surround-sound bleeps..."
