I designed a collection of virtual digital skins that was inspired by morphogenesis and mineral crystalisation processes.
A series of radical non-human like aesthetics were fashioned, to engage the public to consider if we have the tools to-redesign ourselves, would we still look, feel and be human?
I also worked in collaboration with a company called Holition who deal with a range of 3D technologies in particular Augmented Reality.
Augmented Reality technology blurs the boundaries between the real and the virtual worlds; it superimposes graphics, audio and other sense enhancements over a live view of the world.
Holition and I designed and developed new ways to utilise and implement the AR to enable a more tactile and tangible response to technology, bridging the gap between the immaterial and material worlds.
We translated the digital skins into the technology, and developed face-tracking AR to create a virtual experience that would enable the public to interact and visualise the future technological impact on society and the self.
