Chris Joseph is a writer and artist who has produced solo and collaborative work since 2002 as babel. His projects include Inanimate Alice, an award-winning series of multimedia stories produced with novelist Kate Pullinger, and The Breathing Wall, a groundbreaking digital novel that responds to the reader's breathing rate.
