UNMOVIE (stand_in) is an interactive installation that was designed
in occasion of the Critical_Conditions show curated by Timothy
Druckrey. 0501 worked with Phillip
Pocock and Gregor Stehle to develop
a physical instantiation
and extension of the existing digital
component for this exhibition.
The
digital component of UNMOVIE is
a online database driven cinema,
described by Druckery as " a so-called 'future cinema'
without bloated virtualities, fractured
notions of narrative, feeble concepts
of 'softness' in which random and
mostly ephemeral data emerges from
incomprehensible, meaningless,
or vacuous criteria, a cinema
that doesn't replicate special
effects to mediate empty realities." [ Critical_Conditions exhibition
catalog 2003, p74].
The interactive
installation replicated these
qualities in physical form and
added interactivity through
local presence and motion, making
use of projected images and
light, live video streams, and
environmental sensors to temporarily
situate the ephemeral in the moment. The installation
was discussed in over 600 emails
in a period of 40 days and installed
in one week . |
