Flick flock: the distant and distinct characteristics of the masses in immersive aesthetic space

Published: 15 December 2010 Publication History

Abstract

This presentation elaborates on the phenomenon of distance and distinctiveness behind an installation called Flick Flock (2009). The installation uses embodied interaction to explore the human perceptual processes in experiencing a world stylized by form, color, and sound. Using various technologies, (i.e. stereoscopy, 3D surround, and computer vision) Flick Flock breaks the distance by involving the participant's physical body in the interaction and in the content. The installation accommodates distinctiveness by introducing spatiotemporal ambiguities in its visual presentation. An ambiguous presentation of the interconnection of collective bodies, individuals and objects above the earth's surface, ever changing the behavior and composition of one tiny space and the universe it holds. Flick Flock experiments on the effective representation of such complex condition to contemplate on the relationship between humans, natural and human-made entities as something essential and influential to human experience.
