Unmakeablelove Sarah Kenderdine, Jeffrey Shaw (Museum Victoria, UNSW iCinema Centre, EPIDEMIC.) 2008 round screen, infrared light, the viewers, filmed and virtual imagery, multi-user, 180 large field of view, no narrative, anywhere, long set up, torch, flash-light
To explicitly articulate the conjunction between the real and virtual spaces in this work, the viewer’s virtual torch beams penetrate through the container and illuminate other viewers who are standing opposite them on other sides of the installation. This augmented reality is achieved using infra-red cameras that are positioned on each screen pointing at its respective torch operators, and the video images are rendered in real time onto each viewer’s screen so as to create the semblance of illuminating the persons opposite them. The resulting ambiguity experienced between the actual and rendered reality of the viewers’ presences in this installation, reinforce the perceptual and psychological tensions between ‘self’ and ‘other’.
