BEING is a conversation, a state of mind, a moment of existence.  It seeks to question the now, the reality of the moment.  BEING is a virtual world.  BEING mixes, layers, juxtaposes, fragments, re-constructs and re-invents a reality; a reality that may or may not be real. 

BEING is a digital arts collaboration between Lonomi artists Ian Upton, Sarah Goldingay and Trevor Woolery. 

Lonomi is a digital arts platform, based in Coventry, that seeks to facilitate the creation and exhibition of exceptional work whether it be live or recorded, that is informed by technology in all its forms. 

The words for BEING were created by Woolery/Goldingay for their 2005 Collide commission - MyFirstUniverse.These stories were gathered during 100 interviews with Coventry residents.
