Tracking the Net is an
installation under the form of an interactive netted cube of 3X3
meters with rear-projection onto one wall, with high-resolution
image. It can host from 1 to 10 interactive visitors, which can
navigate and interact in real time.
The cube has its own
electronic sensors and active notes, which reveal the presence of
the visitor. Movements of the visitor can be detected and measured
over a wide space in order to control a real-time animation. The
visitor can interact with the virtual environment by touching, pushing,
and manipulating the net. Just by interacting with the net the visitor
can navigate and interact with the virtual objects, sounds, music.
Movement of the nets are detected by infrared cameras (Qualisys)
and identified by real-time tracker.
Interacting with the
net the digital environment morphs into a high-speed vortex. The
space morphs into a different environment. A highway of information,
streams, discks, whir, layers of network cyber landscape appear,
arriving, moving, crossing from all directions. Streaming towards
different information nodes. From an electronic stream all expands
into an intangible cyberspace, there are no boundaries...We are
in the habitat of Cybor Net.

The
next step of Tracking the Net is an installation of 4X4 meters with
rear-projection onto 4 walls, with high-resolution images (stereo
and non-), able to take form 1 to 20 interactive visitors, which can
navigate and interact simultaneously in real time.
