Interactive video installation by Neil Brown, Dennis Del Favero, Matthew McGinity, Jeffrey Shaw and Peter Weibel. Described by The Sydney Morning Herald as " the cutting edge of digital media art" the installation is presented in the world's first 360 degree three dimensional projection cinema. It premiered to critical acclaim during the Sydney Festival 2008 and has been selected for the International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Seville and the eArts Festival Shanghai during 2008. The installation allows viewers to explore and reconfigure 28 hours of television which have been segmented into a database of over 20,000 television video clips. Two hundred of these clips are projected at any one time onto a fully immersive 120-square metre panoramic screen surrounding the viewer. By selecting any of these video clips, viewers can re-assemble the image database in an infinite number of ways to create new types of spatial connections between televisual images, and in so doing, reconceptualizing television itself. |
