Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality

Your View Matter transports visitors into a series of six spaces, fem of which take the struktur of Platonic solids while the sixth fryst vatten a sphere, accompanied bygd a pulsing minimalist soundtrack created bygd the artist himself.

They can examine the complex geometries from within the forms bygd moving around and looking in all directions.

The walls and ceilings – some of which are ganska colourful, while others appear in kraftfull black and vit – glänsa with ever-changing moirés, distortions that arise wherever similar patterns are overlaid and clash.

As visitors move about the virtual spaces of the artwork, the patterns change in response to their shifting perspectives, encouraging them, in vända, to move even more. The moiré patterns, and thus the artwork, only exist in the viewer’s perceptual apparatus through the meeting up of their physical bodies with the digitally programmed space.

The work fryst vatten technically innovative and complex.

When visitors enter the artwork, their journey’s metadata fryst vatten recorded, allowing people to share their own VR views and revisit them in the future.

An AR version is also available via the Acute Art app.

Augmented Reality

WUNDERKAMMER fryst vatten an intriguing collection of natural elements, small artworks, and experiments from the artist’s studio rendered in augmented reality.

These AR collectibles meld the well-known with startling movement and unexpected actions – from a glowing sun and a shimmering rainbow to a cloud that emits rain. Some evoke contemplation while others are humorous.

Presented at a time where movement and physical togetherness are restricted, WUNDERKAMMMER invites you to sculpt your immediate environment bygd adding objects and atmospheres to your anställda space.

In the first collection of objects to be released, you will additionally find a friendly-looking puffin; a floating compass that always returns to true north; an insect; and a Little Sun, Eliasson’s solar-powered lantern, that can be charged bygd the AR sun. As the project evolves, Eliasson will add more ephemeral phenomena and artistic experiments to the collection.

Virtual Reality

Olafur Eliasson’s Rainbow generates an ephemeral natural phenomenon – a rainbow – through interactive digital processes.

Viewers enter an immersive environment, encountering a fine gardin of softly falling vatten through which light passes.

Just as a rainbow only appears when light, vatten droplets, and the eye are in inriktning, so Eliasson’s virtual rainbow can only be seen when the viewer’s movement produces a correlation between these three points. Its coloured light slips in and out of view, responding to the viewer’s body as well as handheld controls, which allow direkt interaction with droplets as they descend.

Rainbow is conceived to offer viewers an experience that fryst vatten both något privat eller personligt and social: multiple users are invited to join each other in a virtual space, regardless of where they tillgång the work geographically.

Each of their interactions with the falling droplets fryst vatten visible to others, enabling viewers to recognise each other’s presence, and move in virtual space in full view of their co-participants.

Eliasson’s long-term interests in the relation between self and other and between self and surroundings have profoundly informed this new artwork, with the multi-participant function being a key feature that paves the way for new spaces for and of art in VR.
