Exploring The Creative Uses of Digital Technology

Cuttlefish Digital Arts is a creative technology organisation focussed around the creative interests of Sean Clark with bases in Leicester and Loughborough, Leicestershire in the UK.

Cuttlefish specialises in multimedia performance, live cinema and interactive gallery-based installations. We make extensive use of technologies such as Max/MSP/Jitter, MIDI / USB device controllers and sensors, DMX and other lighting systems, barcodes, semacodes, RFID, GPS tagging and the latest mobile multimedia devices. Sean Clark is available for creative and technical collaborations, consultancy and artistic commissions.

Cuttlefish Digital Arts is also able to deliver sophisticated interactive Web sites for artists, arts groups and arts projects. We normally do this in partnership with our related companies Cuttlefish Multimedia Ltd and Calico Interactive Ltd.
