Dan Sandin ( www.evl.uic.edu/dan ) is an internationally recognized pioneer of electronic art and visualization.
In 1973, he developed the Sandin Image Processor, a highly programmable
analog computer for processing video images in real time. Working with Tom
DeFanti, he combined the Image Processor with real-time computer graphics
and performed visual concerts that he called Electronic Visualization Events,
with synthesized musical accompaniment. In 1991, Sandin and DeFanti conceived
and developed, in collaboration with graduate students, the CAVE
virtual reality (VR) theater. In recent years, Sandin has been concentrating
on perfecting the design of the CAVE and its derivatives, the ImmersaDesk
and the Infinity Wall. Sandin's video animation Spiral PTL
is in the collection of The Museum of Modern Art in New York. His latest
artworks involve the use of camera-based video in VR environments.
