Daniel O’Shea makes theatre, designs projections, and creates films, using technology and design as a keystone to support narrative and deepen dramaturgy. In PKD Workshow (2013) and Are we not drawn onward to new era (2018), Daniel employs a low-fi DYI aesthetic, making circuits by weaving wires and exposing the guts of the machinery as a metaphorical parallel to the convoluting ideas of existential discourses. Currently his work focuses on states of presence, unbalancing audienceship and novel constructions of light through design and new media. In the last few years, Daniel’s artistic research has explored the ephemeral nature of a ‘self’, interruptions of technology on human processes, and the results cognitive dissonance.
