The project aims to explore the way humans relate to screens, webcams and underlying technology and also to highlight the social and technological pressures we are subjected to.
Split in two parts, two identical spaces, with a projection on the far walls. Space one, will project the video and audio feed from Space two and in-turn Space two will project the corresponding data back to Space one, creating a loop between the spaces. When users enter Space one, there movement will be detected and instead of their movement changing anything on there own screens, it will only intervier with Space two’s video projection. The secondary states will be the video feed from each of the spaces own rooms. Some of the questions I’m interested in are; does the user understand their own involvement in the opposites video, or do they think they have changed there own video? If the user becomes aware of there involvement do they socially co-operate with the other user in the corresponding room? Can information be passed between the two spaces?
