It matters what matters we use to think other matters with; it matters what stories we tell to tell other stories with; it matters what knots knot knots, what thoughts think thoughts, what descriptions describe descriptions, what ties tie ties. It matters what stories make worlds, what worlds make stories.
– Donna Haraway

Shuruq Tramontini is a media artist and creative technologist based in Los Angeles. Her interest traces the borders where physical reality blends into digital representation. In and through her work she uses cutting edge tech to tell stories of the current world we live in.

Born in Baghdad, Shuruq grew up in the Middle East and Germany. With a Master of Art in Architecture her work emphasizes spatial relationships and blends a deep understanding of space and engagement with interactive technologies. She further hold a Master of Science in Fiction and Entertainment which has led to diverse experiments in a spatial practice merging cutting edge technologies resulting in virtual realities, creative coding, and audience experiences.

Her latest project Current Affairs, which is currently touring festivals and museums, is an interactive VR experience that takes the viewer on a dive into a plastic polluted ocean. Submerging into a photogrammetry generated landscape, the project is linked to real-time remote sensing data (Argo floats) which keeps the game-play alive and its species interactive.
