Digital Echoes is an exhibition of student projects from FINE 247 Expanded Media: Interaction offered at the University of Waterloo in winter 2026. Using visual programming software TouchDesigner, students explore interaction by integrating sounds and moving
images, and working with real-time data feeds through projects such as an audio-reactive visual system, motion tracking, and other humancomputer interactions. Within the world of Digital Echoes, every space resonates with questions: how does technology mediate,
alter, or extend our experience of reality? Here, projects unravel the threads of online identity, transform climate anxiety into swirling digital landscapes, and give voice and colour to the hidden rhythms of our virtual lives. ECHO00_convergence gathers
fleeting sketches from a semester’s collective imagination. ECHO001 to ECHO009 emerged as interactive installations, first</div>
