Project Details
- "Neither Here Nor There" is a multi-locational installation by which digital artists share an immersive and interactive VR experience.
- Using an ImmersaDesk high resolution, rear-projection, drafting-table-sized VR system and a tracking system, the viewer experiences a first-person view of the environments that are located in the Digital Bayou, The Bridge: SIGGRAPH 96 Art Show, and a CAVE installed at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz, Austria.
- These virtual reality networked environments create a new form of communication not experienced in traditional forms of communications media.
