One of the projects I’ve been thinking about and researching for some time has been selected for the 2009 Lima edition of the fantastic Interactivos workshop/exhibition series. I will be spending two intensive weeks in Lima, Peru in mid-April working on developing the concept of peering outside the borders of a video frame. The idea is to break out of the convention of the video frame as a fixed window using techniques from virtual reality, Genre painting, screen based immersion and optical illusion. The result will hopefully be a captivating but cheeky interactive installation.
This event is produced by the wonderful Medialab-Prado group.
I’ll be heading there with my lovely Linz compatriots Carles Gutierrez and Ricardo Nascimento.
After the workshop I’ll be leaving the Ars Electronica Futurelab to take time out to focus on my own projects. My base of operations will be mostly Toulouse, France.
