a computer based interactive installation

Data drawn from the internet are merged with data scanned from persons.
This cocktail of inivisible information captured by the internet and personal appearance is translated into images of phantastic sea anemons and seaflowers moving in virtual space, each comprising characteristics oft the www and the person entering the interactive space.

Hybrid avatars combine personal and web generated data. Due to motion tracking the avatars follow their generator while walking through the space.
When the person is leaving the space the avatar also disappears.

In cooperation with Lab 3: Prof. Georg Trogemann, KHM 2004
