Emotive Virtualscapes

Set up within the Cyberpunk Singapore exhibition was a collaborative installation I designed with a programmer and technical consultants. The installation utilised components of Human-Computer interfaces in order to speculate on a future where virtual states are omniscient and highly personalised. 

​

Without a click, touch or any button, the visualised virtual world will change and adapt to oneʼs emotion and thoughts, generating endless possibilities of virtual realities and identities that live through the mind.

​

This installation visualised the three possibilities of such neuro-technology’s consequences within society as represented within cyberpunk, in the form of motion graphic gifs:

a) A synthesis where human identities adapt and change alongside the virtual reality.

b) A utopic, humanist view wherein this will be the next stage in our evolution as the posthuman.

c) A dystopic, fearful view wherein this will be the end of humankind and human identities as

we understand and know it.

HOW TO INTERACT

​

At the exhibition, people stood in front of the webcam

( limited to one person only ) & held an expression- happy, sad, or angry. The program would play pre-programmed visual immediately after detecting the expression. The person could change expressions and try this out multiple times.
