The second part of Re-mixed reality seminar will focus on Bumping into (New) Media in Public Space, a study project organised by Sari Tervaniemi & Mikko Lipiäinen who are teaching at Tampere University of Applied Sciences / School of Art and Media.
The project consists of two productions. One production is experimenting with VJ tools to create interventions in public (media) space.
The other production is titled Wormholes, based on the original idea by phD Taina Rajanti, conducted with a team consisting of a group of students. The idea of Wormholes is to develop means to create research tools and ways to represent contemporary structure and conception of space, where leaps from one reality into another can be made directly, disregarding georaphical space. Wormholes production experiements with projection of virtual public space into physical public space, aiming to involve the public in free interaction over a theme relevant to the physical public space.
Participants of this session include:
- Sari Tervaniemi, Mikko Lipiäinen & co (FI)
- Taina Rajanti (FI)
- Julius von Bismarck (GER), the top-shot helmet project
Re-mixed reality seminar is moderated by Teresa Dillon / N.I.P. - New Interfaces for Performance
