about ictal project
I'm Gus Cummins, an artist who has had epilepsy since 1991. The 'Ictal Project' is an attempt to address epilepsy and its associated stigma, through art.
Currently, 'Invaders' is showing in the cafe area of Rich Mix in Bethnal Green, London.
Invaders was the centre of 'Ictal' at Exeter Phoenix in December 2008.
Driven by EEG data recorded during siezure activity, 'Invaders' was commissioned for the Exeter Phoenix Media Digital Bursary 2008, and is an audiovisual creation.
'ictal 2008' was part of DaDaFest International at the A Foundation in Liverpool in Sept 2008, alongside work by Alison Jones, Ju Gosling, Wolfgang Temmel and Tanya Raabe.
Phase 1 of the Ictal project was an exhibition of prints at the NeuroSupport Centre, Liverpool and the Royal United Hospital, Bath.
Please email your comments and thoughts on the Ictal Project to me. Thanks.
Gus Cummins
