Between Us is an Augmented Reality audio/visual artwork about desire, solar physics and the impossibility of touch.
Between Us is made for Magic Leap and Sennheiser AMBEO 3D audio. Drawing on quantum physicist Karen Barad’s work on touch, the narrative in Between Us is at once seductive and unsettling.
The participant inhabits and audio/visual world where they are adressed directly through the narrative. Immersed in the 3d soundscape and visuals, the participant is both audience and artwork, guided by disembodied voice that speaks of solar physics and the hunting nature of desire, the anticipative action of touch.
We believe that Haunted Geologies will be one of the world’s first immersive artworks for AR in dome environments. We are developing a pioneering technical innovation that integrates the personalised holographic visuals and sounds of Magic Leap AR with the immersive dome projection allowing a seamless interactive narrative and a truly participatory immersive experience. The innovation developed from the research experiments with Magic Leap AR with the external dome environment began during my fellowship with (SWCTN). I was also part of the ACE delegation to visit SAT Société des arts technologiques in June 2019, enabled me to experience and discuss artworks for dome environments.
