During these visits, I was able to observe the daily farm routines, and learned about their self-designed sheep archive, which included a handwritten logbook of all the sheep’s ear tags from last 20 years. I learned to milk each sheep, and filmed their movements.<br /> <br />In an effort to identify individual sheep within the heard, I developed my own catalog and facial tracking system. With the help of Franz Rouss, I utilized the milking process to document every individual within the herd. The resulting installation [H.E.R.D]: an educational tool includes a composite video of all of the herd being milked simultaneously, and a log book that identifies each sheep’s tag number, milking group, and milking position, as well as observational notes that document each sheep’s mobility, and general attitude. Alongside this, is a video of the facial tracking software identify specific sheep grazing in the field, and the barn. A corresponding worksheet allows viewers to test their identification abilities, by matching individual sheep to their tracking color. Audio plays over the installation identifying individual sheep ‘bahs’, and photos of the sheep tags hang on a small ladder from the farm. Finally, a sample of sheep’s wool, and several different samples of sheep’s milk are also displayed.</span></div> https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B2067704801716751505899504582104/livestream derive white <div style="text-align: left"><span class="years"><br /> LiveStreamDérive, 2019</span><span class="caption-copy">3-Channel Video Installation<br /> <br />In the video installation LiveStreamDérive non-localized voices control a silver body to explore a lush green landscape.

During these visits, I was able to observe the daily farm routines, and learned about their self-designed sheep archive, which included a handwritten logbook of all the sheep’s ear tags from last 20 years. I learned to milk each sheep, and filmed their movements.<br /> <br />In an effort to identify individual sheep within the heard, I developed my own catalog and facial tracking system. With the help of Franz Rouss, I utilized the milking process to document every individual within the herd. The resulting installation [H.E.R.D]: an educational tool includes a composite video of all of the herd being milked simultaneously, and a log book that identifies each sheep’s tag number, milking group, and milking position, as well as observational notes that document each sheep’s mobility, and general attitude. Alongside this, is a video of the facial tracking software identify specific sheep grazing in the field, and the barn. A corresponding worksheet allows viewers to test their identification abilities, by matching individual sheep to their tracking color. Audio plays over the installation identifying individual sheep ‘bahs’, and photos of the sheep tags hang on a small ladder from the farm. Finally, a sample of sheep’s wool, and several different samples of sheep’s milk are also displayed.</span></div> https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B2067704801716751505899504582104/livestream derive white <div style="text-align: left"><span class="years"><br /> LiveStreamDérive, 2019</span><span class="caption-copy">3-Channel Video Installation<br /> <br />In the video installation LiveStreamDérive non-localized voices control a silver body to explore a lush green landscape.

With no mission or narrative the game is transformed into a digital dérive in which the players unpredictably try to push the limits of the silver body.

This way you can observe how the controller and controlled handle different versions of the same scenario.

An abstract soundscape is controlled live by the distance between bodies, the number of bodies detected, and their spatial positioning. The work ponders the representation of relationships while creating a space for relations to form. This work was shown at an Interactive Art and Experimental Sound exhibition. Movement artists activated the interactive media Installation for a 30-minute performance, at all other times the work was open for the public to interact with. <br />This project was completed with support from The Frank-Ratchye Studio for Creative Inquiry.</span></div> https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/D2111491724713933303404080446936/5a-6_Schematics-of-Attention_Julianna-Johnston-1.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T2111492188096144434988017040856/3a-5_Schematics-of-Attention_Julianna-Johnston-5.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/I2111494234780846157136478387672/Jules-Solo-Show-23.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/X2111494923545376381303716625880/Jules-Solo-Show-2.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/L2553318513053452637255674150360/ifta-2.2.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/X2553318585143328477312601865688/ifta-3.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/F2553318645150586949089773272536/ifta-4.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B2553318882947564803279603154392/ifta-6.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Z2553327153785077923915294359000/ifta-13.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/K2553327153766631179841584807384/ifta-12.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/D2553327153748184435767875255768/ifta-11.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Z2553327153065654905040621845976/ifta-10.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/M2553327464354461148889305365976/MKL_3482.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/V2553327573743653505986946448856/MKL_3508.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/H2553327815027065990107881586136/MKL_3625.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B2553328039265686950121191030232/MKL_3722.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/U2553328328344613329223574404568/MKL_3678.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/U2553333252001967531187415334360/ifta-1-cropped2.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/C2553344640265442132442491436504/ifta-idk-new-color.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/E2673935197246407809650443730392/_DSC4445_high_res-3-5.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Q2673937993533001711060244544984/tether_to_still1_Julianna_Johnston_2024-3.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/G2673938133045727140525583416792/tether_to_still2_Julianna_Johnston_2024-1.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/D2673939448575280757122256911832/grass-hand.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/F2673948596629261558941965663704/argus-still-13e2d.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/M2673949620312877185379823042008/eyes-postcard-cropped.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/L2673950875927406050567872888280/argus-still---theobrighterbluer.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/F2673951204593045211850954030552/The-Eyes-Still1---Julianna-Johnston.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/H2673966915039336747696231071192/vote_editted_darker3-2.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/N2673976138153119185440105348568/vote_paint2.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/G2673976200687581595315485326808/vote_count.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Q2673976302366034929602533834200/R0024100.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/J2673976368589846154219824135640/shout_vote.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/M2673976528615350993650184404440/vote_box_above_cropped-1.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/K2673985014136071644117637316056/ifta-1-cropped2.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/F2673988306142019038324218707416/Screen-Shot-2025-11-09-at-11.21.01-AM.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/C2674026589666119387737003179480/vibrating-red-screen_cropped.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B2674076871542861088200864349656/hand-dramatic-still.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/G2674083926389451613976622579160/251101MAX_0071_hand-dance.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/A2674088469066200461617093983704/vibrating-final-scene.png https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/U2674119021578306263430505741784/251101MAX_0071_16-by-9.png https://juliannajohnston.com/portfolio_broiler 2026-03-12T20:17:38+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Q1515376351823325515705315491841/horizontal.svg <div style="text-align: left"><span class="years"><br /> The Eyes, 2022</span><span class="caption-copy"><i>Performance and Video Work.

The gallery issued an open call, inviting viewers to virtually enter my studio space. From their remote locations, participants used vocal commands to direct a human avatar to explore the studio. Using various materials and tools stowed around the space, participants created new work or continued the work of prior participants, often leaving prompts and surprises for others to discover.<br /> <br />Each participant’s first person view was then mapped onto a 360° rendering of the studio. In the final virtual reality, viewers can witness the concurrent experiences of each participant. The remote viewer is intimately immersed in a narrative recreation of the isolated acts of collaboration. With the added mobility of a VR environment, viewers can follow individual threads of interaction or bask in the simultaneous fluid manipulation of the space by remote participants.</span></div> https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/V2106883692921719941067417370072/Data Point Duet https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/I2106885235991861706871410048472/Self Systemize Water Cycle https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T2111488704188718441980970188248/dodechahedron2_3.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/K2111488887401780582064236838360/dodechahedron12.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/P2111489998984131719728107666904/close_up_darker.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/D2111490693946767952661755248088/edit_2darker.jpg <div style="text-align: left"><br /> <span class="years"><br /> You Held the Door, a Dodecahedron Formed, 2021</span><span class="caption-copy">Interactive Media Installation Activated by Movement Artists<br />Movement Artists: Crescent, Selene Phillips, Abby Baldwin <br />Sound Collaborator: Davis Polito<br /><br /><i>You Held the Door, a Dodecahedron Formed </i>utilizes body tracking to translate the physical and emotional distance between users into infographic representations.
