REFLECTIVE DUALITY

- 2015)

- Category: Interactive installation

- Description:

This installation represents a psycho-analytical study that focuses on visual perception and the role of imagination and memory in affecting our perceptual experiences. It explores a *Mind Dependant Reality* in which an embodied spatial experience is introduced where the spectators would view carefully assembled bits and pieces of projected images. Depending on cognitive perception and a bit of imagination the encounter would provide enriching experiences within an empty space.

Installation setup - Isometric

- Methodologies

1. Static 2D images with defined visual information in relation to perspective points, depth and space/objects coherence.

2. Layering visual information and creating an interactive visual display that engages with the different users occupying the space.

3. Live input of the movements that occurs within the space and merging it with the projected image creating a combination of both outcomes thus increasing interactivity.

4. Programming sketches that enable interplay between live video feed, motion detection and background images
