MORPHOVISION

Morphovision is a system that distorts/modifies what you see with your naked eyes. It was co-developed by Toshio Iwai and NHK Science & Technical Research and Laboratories.

In front of a physical 3D miniature house (placed in a glass box) is a touch screen that allows a user to select different visual effects. According to the user’s selection, the house may become soft or even break apart. This all happens between your naked eyes and the miniature house – no special goggles or screens needed. I can’t help saying that we are a step closer to “photoshopping the real world.”

Anmerkungen:

Das Visual ist gut geeignet, die Kunst als Aktion weniger.
Man könnte den Künslter Kontaktiern um vielleicht eine Animationdes Morphings zu erhalten.
Umständlich.
