His artificial worlds – Iconica [1998] and Semiomorph [2002] – “...explore the dynamic between the iconic ideal and the personal specific, the real and the simulated, and the way in which our identity is shaped by language and communication” [Troyinnocent.net].


He has won a number of awards for his work including Honorary Mention, LIFE 2.0: Artificial Life, Spain (1999); Foreign Title Award, MMCA Multimedia Grand Prix, Japan (1998); and Honorary Mention, Prix Ars Electronica (1992).
