Cell Tango consists of a dynamically growing archive of cellphone transmitted images tagged with metadata contributed by participants from anywhere within the reach of cellular transmission and reception in the world. The received images are visualized within a virtual 3D architectural structure and organized based on a number of metadata criteria such as cellphones numbers, time and date of transmission, and participants' contributed categories and descriptive tags. This project is a collaboration with George Legrady.

Cell Tango has been presented at the Theatre Poitiers Inaugural Event, France in September 2008. It was exhibited at the Ford Gallery of Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti, Michigan in Fall 2008. In January 2009 it was shown as part of Scalable Relations, an exhibition at the Beall Center curated by Christiane Paul. It is currently being exhibited at the Davis Museum at Wellesley College in Massachusets.
