ConFIGURING the CAVE
Description
Artist Statement
ConFIGURING the CAVE is a computer based interactive video installation that assumes a set of technical and pictorial procedures to identify various paradigmatic conjunctions of body and space. The work utilises the CAVE technology stereographic virtual reality environment with contiguous projections on three walls and the floor. The user interface is a near life-size wooden puppet that is formed like the prosaic artists' mannequin; this figure can be handled by the viewers to control real time transformations of the computer generated imagery and the sound composition.
