Their experimental work finds new ways to use technology and visual axioms for performances and sound arts in site-specific environments. The correlation between sound and patterns is an integral part of their work and they aim to create art that is playful, yet intelligent, and excites greater cognitive levels in the viewer and the creators.

Riley and Han's work has become a catalyst in the realization and prognostication of a cycle of the world as we know it, and fills gaps between now and forever.
