Water Mirror (2022) is an aesthetic experiment in perception and interactive art. It is a new development from a series of prior works concerned with light, live wind data and hybrid place. Interacting with it feels like leaning into something organic, that’s shifting and changing - like water.

Artistic data visualisation Wallangarra Seeing the White Gum (2021) communicates the challenges Australian eucalypts are facing, visualise the efforts of citizen scientists to understand these and engage audiences in an evocative reminder of the Australian Gum. Data visualised is from the Dead Trees Project.

Jen Seevinck discusses the interactive art work and artistic data visualisation Ruby Corrents 2.0, and her approach to working with data. It was created to complement a new media article about Jen's work in a textbook for undergraduates.

Ruby Corrents 2.0 (2018) is the final work created after Ruby Corrents, and from Artist in Residency Science (AIRS) project at Coastal Impacts Unit (CIU), Queensland Government. The work features both live wave updates and historical data from CIU.

Ruby Corrents (2018) is an interactive art work-in-progress finalised in Ruby Corrents 2.0. Here the visualisation of live wave data updates from the Coastal Impacts Unit (CIU) Deagon was started.

Dichroic Wade 2016 is an interactive artwork by Jen Seevinck installed at The Works gallery in San Jose as part of a curated and juried show for the international premiere conference on Computer Human Interaction CHI 2016, where it won an award!

The Light Waves 2016 interactive art system was installed at the Asia Pacific Design Library at Southbank, Brisbane early 2016. It developed from Light Currents and this installation supported the evaluation of participant experience of the work, in order to inform the final work Dichroic Wade.

The Light Currents 2015 interactive art system was installed at Brisbane Powerhouse Theatre on the Brisbane River, coming out of a 'Made from Light' artist residency project run there. It is a site specific installation whose concept responds to the Brisbane river outside the theatre, seeking to effect the visual experience of light on the water.

The Of me With me 2014 interactive art system is an interactive drawing experience that came out of a collaboration with artists at the Cascade and ArTel groups of Cerebral Palsy League, as a part of the Iterative Intersections project, funded in part by Arts Queensland and QUT. 

Iterative Intersections 2012-15 is the collaborative effort between new media artist Jen Seevinck and community artists at the Cascade and ArTel groups of Cerebral Palsy League, funded in part by Regional Arts Development Fund (Arts Queensland). The project culminated in the interactive artwork Of me With me (2014).

Forest Reflections 2012 is an interactive artwork and project involving collaboration with 28 primary school children in an environmentally sensitive, tactile learning experience about the rainforest and, interactive digital art.

Medical virtual reality applications developed as a part of the Virginia Modelling Analysis and Simulation Centre research group in Norfolk, USA between 2002 and 2007.

Blue in the Bluebird 1999 is a computer generated video installed at Strathnairn gallery in Canberra. The work maps the movement of bird wings to a range of visual forms - from animating individual birds through to informing the flock and sculptural, abstract forms.
