A dance between worlds
Digital Symbiosis brings the moving body into a landscape of flowing color and particles. The work explores connections between embodied movement, virtual representation and the natural environment.
Movement as material
OptiTrack and MotionBuilder capture and process movement, which is connected to a particle-based body in Unity. Scene design and projection bring the virtual environment back into a physical exhibition space.

The runtime view connects the avatar to a landscape made from bands of colour.
