Responsive Environments
I am intrigued by the development of virtual spaces, virtual objects and environments will increasingly become more life like, malleable and responsive. Maybe not in a way that mimics life as we know it but we could explore even more options, unbound by real world physics and processes, something that represents the essence of an ever-changing, data driven, user-participatory space.
RESEARCH – Permutations of a monument
I was recently inspired by Mark Napier’s work, especially Permutations of a monument
“What does a virtual monument look like?”
The answer is a parody of solidity: a bendable building, a monument that bounces, a skyscraper that flies. The object straddles the line between a thing and an event: an organic form that is itself a record of a fleeting moment of destruction and creation…..- the relationship of the human body to monument is shifted by the virtual world, and with it, the notion of permanence, memory, and our relationship to physical objects in general.
