Un/Seen is a live performance within an immersive experience using volumetric capture. It transforms in real-time and is a hybrid of holographic, physical, and animation. All of this, while the performer was in another location not on-site.
With new immersive experiences, we become disembodied. That is, we are physically in one space while our eyes and thoughts are experiencing another world simultaneously. Our bodies become dissociated as we shift between the simulated and the real. Furthermore, we are not immediately within the presence of another. Our presence is mediated and transported into another space that doesn't actually exist. We are in essence, seen and unseen.
Un/Seen Avatars are the custom avatars that the public choses as they enter the virtual space. These videos are on a loop. This was a collaboration with artist Tiffany Trenda and dulce303.
